The tickets allow entrance to the museum. You can see the 2 oval rooms of waterlilies and the collection of impressionist paintings in the lower level.
The advantage of the tickets is the same as that of a museum pass, moving to the front of a line (in our case, 2 weeks ago, a line of approx 150 people!) We'd seen all of the other museums on previous trips so these individual tickets were better for us than the museum pass.
The line for reservation or pass holders is to the right of the long line, easiest from the Tuileries to walk around the back of the Orangerie to access entry.

Melissa-
Entrance is covered by the museum pass. However, when we tried to go through the "Reservations only" line last week, we were told it was only for those people with reservations (and I guess already ticketed). So we had to stand in line with everyone else.
Whether this was normal procedure or not I don't know.

FNAC stores are like American Tower Records, Virgin Megastore, etc., I believe. See their website at www.fnac.fr and you'll get the idea.

Melissa,
I did order online. At the payment page, you can select (at the top of the form) whether you want to pick up in-store or have the tickets mailed. There is a charge for the mailing, but I did it in May for Musee D'Orsay and it was worth the extra cost to me not to have to worry about taking care of it once I got to Paris. Others, I'm sure, would advise to simply pick them up. Hope this helps!

Thanks so much for all this great information. I've waited so long to do this. It felt wonderful to print out the confirmation of my reservation in August and know that finally, finally I'll get to see this.

I've ordered tickets for L'Orangerie and have a Confirmation of Reservation that states an e-mail confirming the details will be sent to me.
Confirmation is in English... but when I access the FNAC website all I come up with is French. Have sent a message to inquire on my order status since e-mail has not arrived. However, all messages come back in French. Is there a secret to accessing an English translation? (Don't know how I got the confirm in English!)
Sigh..... -
