Orly Airport operates separate terminal slot allocations for low-cost carrier Transavia and flag carrier Air France. Understanding these allocations helps travelers anticipate gate changes and connection times.
Transavia Slot Portfolio
Transavia holds morning and early-evening slots on routes to Lisbon, Porto, and Marrakech. These slots sit in Terminal 3 and rarely exceed 25-minute turnarounds.
- 07:25 departure to Lisbon
- 18:40 return from Porto
- Average 20-minute turnaround
Air France Slot Allocation
Air France dominates Terminal 1 with 35 slots daily. Most long-haul flights use runways 07/25, creating occasional congestion during peak summer months.
- CDG feeder flights every 45 minutes
- Overseas departures between 10:00–14:00
- Priority stand allocation
Connecting Between Terminals
Passengers transferring from Transavia to Air France must allow 60 minutes. The automated shuttle between Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 takes 8 minutes.
2026 Schedule Changes
From March 2026, Transavia adds two weekly slots to Boa Vista. Air France will retire two midday Paris-Corsica rotations to free capacity.
