Good to know

Since June 2024, Paris has been even closer to Montpellier! The journey from Orly to the center of Paris (Gare de Lyon, Châtelet-les-Halles) takes less than 30 minutes, thanks to the extension of metro line 14, which is fully automatic, with high frequency and low fares. From Montpellier to the heart of the capital in less than 2 hours. What a precious time-saver!
