What ORY to OPO looks like
The ORY to OPO sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Paris ORY to Porto OPO is a medium haul sector of 1,200 km by great circle, flown nonstop 12.3 times a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 1,200 km, 830 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 2h 02m.
Paris ORY is a major hub in the network held here, 157 scheduled destinations and 361.7 departures a day. Porto OPO has 138 destinations and 208.4 departures a day.
Porto is one hour behind of Paris all year.
The pair sits inside Europe, a corridor where the site already publishes 14 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on ORY to OPO from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| ORY to OPO | 12.29 | 86 | easyJet, TAP Air Portugal, Transavia France |
| OPO to ORY | 11.86 | 83 | easyJet, TAP Air Portugal, Transavia France |
3 carriers are recorded on the sector, so a missed departure is normally a rebooking rather than a lost day.
At 12.3 times a day there is usually another departure within a few hours, which is what makes a same day booking on this pair realistic.
Between them the two directions put about 169 departures a week on ORY to OPO, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 2h 02m block time on ORY to OPO. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to ORY | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At ORY before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| ORY to OPO in the air, estimated | 122 min | 6h 32m |
| Formalities at OPO | 90 min | 8h 02m |
| Delivery run in Porto | 45 min | 8h 47m |
| Door to door | 527 min | 8h 47m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for ORY to OPO is 8h 47m.
A courier who leaves Paris at 09:00 local is on the ground in Porto at about 10:02 local and at the door by 12:17 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Porto, the last useful departure from Paris is around 14:43 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 51 of them join ORY to OPO.
| Connecting at | ORY to hub, flights a day | Hub to OPO, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bilbao BIO | 2.14 | 0.86 | 1,254 | 3h 51m |
| Toulouse TLS | 9.71 | 1 | 1,437 | 3h 57m |
| Madrid MAD | 10.14 | 13 | 1,466 | 4h 28m |
| Lisbon LIS | 13.71 | 11.43 | 1,714 | 4h 29m |
| Geneva GVA | 0.86 | 8.14 | 1,704 | 4h 30m |
| Seville SVQ | 4.29 | 1.14 | 1,912 | 4h 32m |
With 12.3 times a day on the nonstop, a connection here is a disruption plan rather than a routing, and it is listed because a closed runway or a cancellation wave is exactly when nobody has time to work it out.
51 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Bilbao BIO, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 6 times a week.
Through BIO the routing covers 1,254 km against the 1,200 km nonstop track and takes about 3h 51m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 49m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Toulouse TLS at 3h 57m and Madrid MAD at 4h 28m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Paris, Paris CDG is 35 km away by great circle and carries 277 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.
Restricted hours at either end
Widely documented operating restrictions, checked 2026-09-07. Exemptions and seasonal variations exist, so confirm with the carrier before relying on any of them.
Paris ORY is shut to scheduled movements between 23:30 and 06:00 local, so a collection in Paris that runs late does not simply catch a later flight, it waits for the morning and loses a working day in Porto.
Paris ORY, night restrictions: Closed to scheduled traffic between 23:30 and 06:00 local.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for ORY to OPO in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
