Paris's second-largest airport resumes after three months virus closure

Paris's second-largest airport, Orly, resumed operations on Friday after a three-month shutdown amid COVID-19 pandemic, for the first time since closing on April 1, the airport said in a statement.

More than 70 flights were taken off and landed by eight companies on Friday in the airport, with an estimated passenger flow of 8,000 people, equivalent to about 10 percent of the passenger flow before the outbreak. Orly airport currently has only one terminal open, and three more will open gradually.
