Bucharest is served mainly by Henri Coandă International (OTP), the city’s principal international gateway located about 16–18 km north of the center; it functions as Romania’s main hub for full-service carriers and several low-cost airlines, so fares can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on carrier and season. Travel to central Bucharest typically takes 30–50 minutes by car or taxi (fares roughly moderate for the region) and about 40–50 minutes by the express bus or airport shuttle with lower ticket prices. Henri Coandă offers solid passenger facilities but can be busy during peak times, while transit options farther out may add variability to journey times. Aurel Vlaicu/ Băneasa (BBU) has historically been a smaller, nearer-airport about 6–8 km north of downtown and was commonly used by low-cost and domestic operators; operations there have fluctuated, so its role can be seasonal or limited. When open to commercial flights, it typically provides quick access to the city center—around 15–25 minutes by taxi—and may appeal for short domestic hops or near-term budget services, though amenities are more basic than at the larger international airport. Pros: convenience and shorter transfer times. Cons: fewer airline choices and more limited ground transport options when scheduled services are reduced.

Barcelona is served mainly by Josep Tarradellas Barcelona–El Prat (BCN), a large international hub handling long-haul and low-cost carriers alike; smaller private and charter flights may use the nearby Sabadell and Girona airports for budget or seasonal options. BCN sits about 12 km southwest of the city center, with the Aerobús shuttle taking roughly 30–40 minutes (single fares usually in a modest range) and suburban train or metro links offering 25–35 minute journeys for a lower cost. Taxis and ride-hailing typically take 20–30 minutes depending on traffic and can be pricier. Pros include frequent flight choices and good public transport; cons are occasional crowding during peak season and multiple terminals that can add transfer time.

The cost of a one-way flight from Bucharest to Barcelona ranges from $37 (December 2025) to $88 (January 2026). On average, the ticket price is about $56–$130.
