Find Cheap Flights to Paris

Tips for booking flights to Paris

Paris is served by two major international airports: Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) and Paris Orly Airport (ORY). Charles de Gaulle, located northeast of the city, is the largest airport in France and one of the busiest hubs in Europe, handling long-haul international flights from North America, South America, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Orly Airport, situated closer to central Paris, mainly operates domestic and European routes, though it also serves select international destinations. A third airport, Beauvais-Tillé Airport (BVA), is commonly used by low-cost airlines such as Ryanair and Wizz Air, but it is located much farther from the city center and requires additional transfer planning.

Travelers looking for cheap flights to Paris should consider flying during the shoulder and low seasons. The most affordable months are usually January, February, and November, when airfare and hotel prices tend to drop significantly compared to the busy summer season. Spring and early autumn — especially April, May, September, and October — offer an excellent balance between pleasant weather, manageable crowds, and competitive airfare. Midweek departures and overnight flights are often cheaper, especially for transatlantic routes.

Paris is one of the world’s most connected aviation hubs, with airlines such as Air France, Delta, American Airlines, British Airways, Lufthansa, Emirates, Qatar Airways, and Turkish Airlines operating frequent direct flights. Budget carriers including easyJet, Transavia, Ryanair, and Vueling also provide affordable connections throughout Europe. We recommend comparing fares across all Paris-area airports, as the total travel cost can vary considerably depending on baggage fees, transfer costs, and arrival location.
