From there it is roughly a 28 min transfer to the attraction.

Which airport should you fly into?

If you are flying internationally, the major gateway is almost always the better choice — more routes, more competition on fares, and easier onward transport. A smaller airport closer to Louvre Museum can save transfer time, but usually only makes sense if you are already in the region or connecting on a domestic flight.
