The two Gallic companions arrive at the airport, renamed OrlyX for the day, which is also celebrating its 80th anniversary. Not all residents of the Paris region are invited to this banquet; only those living in neighboring towns can participate, subject to availability, by reserving their free place on Wednesday, October 22, on the airport's Instagram account.

While the banquet will take place at noon, accompanied by music from a bard more likable than the one in the comic book, surprises also await passengers in the terminal, which will be transformed into a Gallic village throughout the day.
