Growth i n passenger traffic on the Paris-Orly platform (in millions of passengers)
There are three runways at Paris-Orly with a scheduling capacity of 70 aircraft movements per hour. In 2018, there were 229,052 aircraft movements at Paris-Orly airport. Taking into account the current construction work, the airport has 74 aircraft parking stands, 51% of which are contact stands. This configuration can go up to 91 parking stands as a maxium capacity for medium capacity aircafts. The 2018 use of contact stands for departure was around 85%. Nominal capacities of Paris-Orly terminals At the end of 2018, the nominal capacity of the terminals was 29 million passengers. The projects for improving existing terminals (extension of the East Pier, extension of Hall 1, redesign of the international departure process of the South terminal of Paris-Orly) or creating new infrastructure (connecting building) aim at increasing the capacity of the Paris-Orly airport from March 2019 to 32.5 million passengers, while raising the service quality level. Regulatory constraints Traffic at Paris-Orly airport is subject to two regulatory requirements. A decree of the Ministry of Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism of 6 October 1994 limits the Paris-Orly airport to 250,000 aircraft movements (take off/landing) per year. In 2018, the number of aircraft movements was 229,052, stable compared to 2017 at 229,027. Moreover, since 1968 there has been a night-time curfew on the airport between 11.15 p.m. and 6.00 a.m. for take-offs and between 11.30 p.m. and 6.15 a.m for landings The PACTE bill, as definitively adopted by Parliament, incorporates these requirements and refers to the specifications to determine the terms and conditions of the operating approval for 250,000 allocated slots and the curfew. Traffic Paris-Orly airport’s traffic is mainly origin/destination traffic. In 2018, however, connecting passengers accounted for about 6.6% of departing traffic, or more than 1.1 million passengers. Over the last seven years, passenger traffic at Paris-Orly has been steadily growing, with record passenger traffic levels since 2013. There has also been a change in structure, with strong growth in European traffic partially offset by a fall in domestic traffic, particularly because of the cap of 250,000 landing and take-off slots attributable each year, as well as the impact of the TGV high-speed train on domestic flights. The South-Eastern LGV line was commissioned on 1 July 2017. This change has been accompanied by an increase of nearly 27.0% in the number of passengers per aircraft since 2009, with an average of 145 passengers in 2018, versus 114 passengers in 2009. During this period, the size of the modules used at the airport has constantly increased. (in millions of passengers/year) In 2018 South terminal West terminal 12.5 16.5 TOTAL 29.0
