The Aeroports de Paris website suggests there is a flight connections route at ORY; can anyone confirm this or do you have to go landside?
I specifically looked at the signs pointing to flight connections when I was there last month and as far as I can tell there is no airside route.

Same plane turnaround may be doable but it would rely on things outside your control - specifically that two AF 777s aren't leaving for the Caribbean at the same time as you're trying to get through the emigration and security bottle-neck. Personally, I wouldn't do it. Arriving off the early rotation from LHR at Christmas the queue for emigration stretched right back to the concourse that connects the different Halls.
