Orly bus and shuttle are private affairs: so they cost a lot. Many people, including some Orly airport staff, are unaware that there also exists a public transport option to reach Orly: all at the cost of one or two t+ tickets (one t+ ticket can cost from 1.41 to 2.0 euros, depending on whether you bought it individually or in a carnet or from the driver)! You have to simply take the metro line 7 first till Villejuif Louis Aragon, and then step out of the metro station and take tram line 7 all the way to Orly airport (direction: Athis-Mons; Orly airport is the penultimate stop). You will use one t+ ticket on the metro and another on the tram.
Of course, if you have say a Navigo pass valid for zones 1-2, you will just need to use one t+ ticket, on the tram. Orly airport is in zone 4, so if you have Navigo valid for zones 1-4, then with this option, you don't need to buy any t+ tickets.
Your Navigo is not valid for Orly bus/shuttle services, as they are not managed by SNCF.
Update, Dec. 2015: Some Navigo passes are valid from September 2015 onwards for zones 1-5, so if you hold a Navigo pass, you won't need to buy any t+ ticket to reach Orly, as long as you take the tram.
Update, Feb. 2016: Note that I just realized that Bus 183 from Porte de Choisy (PdC) to the Orly airport is an even better option than the tram with the dezoning of Navigo pass. The bus ride takes an hour from PdC to Orly airport.
