Cheap Flights from Bucharest to Bari Starting at $38

Bucharest is served mainly by Henri Coandă International (OTP), the city’s primary international hub located about 16–18 km north of the city center, and the smaller Aurel Vlaicu/Băneasa (BBU), which is closer to central Bucharest and typically handles low-cost and regional flights. OTP is commonly used by full-service and low-cost carriers and usually offers a wide range of international connections; travel to the center by train, express bus, taxi or ride-hail typically takes 25–45 minutes, with taxi fares and ride-hail costs varying by provider and time of day and express train/bus cheaper. BBU can be more convenient for short domestic or budget flights, with a shorter transfer time but fewer services and limited public-transport options. Pros: OTP provides more facilities, lounges and route choices; BBU can be quicker for nearby departures. Cons: OTP can feel busy at peak times and traffic to the city can add time, while BBU has fewer amenities and connections.

Bari Airport (Aeroporto di Bari – KAROL WOJTYLA, BRI) serves as Puglia’s primary international gateway and typically handles a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines, making fares relatively competitive compared with regional alternatives. It sits about 8–12 km northwest of Bari city centre, with regular train and bus links taking roughly 15–30 minutes (regional train or airport shuttle) and taxi rides usually 15–25 minutes depending on traffic; fares can range from moderate city-bus prices to higher fixed taxi rates. The airport is generally straightforward and compact, convenient for quick transfers, though it can be busy during summer and may have limited late-night services compared with larger European hubs.
