Bucharest is served mainly by two airports with different roles. Henri Coandă (OTP) is the international gateway and primary hub for full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines; it sits about 16–20 km north of the city center and can be reached by train or bus in roughly 25–40 minutes, or by taxi/private transfer in 25–45 minutes depending on traffic (fares typically range from modest to moderate). Aurel Vlaicu/Băneasa (BBU) is a smaller, nearer airport historically used by business and budget flights, located about 8 km from central Bucharest and reachable in 15–30 minutes by car or local bus. OTP offers broader international connectivity and more services, while BBU can be quicker for downtown access but has fewer facilities and less frequent long-haul options.

Which airline can fly direct from Bucharest to Dubai?
The following airlines operate direct flights on the route Bucharest — Dubai: LC Busre SAC
Dubai International (DXB) is the city’s main global gateway and a major transfer hub, catering chiefly to full-service carriers and high-frequency international flights — Emirates and flydubai operate large hubs here. Fares from DXB can be mid-to-premium depending on season and carrier. The airport sits about 10–15 km from Dubai’s city centre; taxis typically take 15–25 minutes (fare ranges can be moderate to high relative to regional norms), while the Dubai Metro Red Line connects the terminal in roughly 25–40 minutes for a low-cost option. Pros: extensive lounge and shopping facilities and frequent services; cons: busy peak periods and longer walks between gates.
Al Maktoum International (DWC), located in the Dubai South district, is positioned as a growing, budget-friendly alternative handling cargo and an increasing number of passenger services, often used by low-cost and charter operators. It lies around 35–45 km from central Dubai, so travel times are longer: taxis can take 35–50 minutes (fares typically higher due to distance), while shuttle or bus options can be cheaper but slower. Pros: generally less crowded and easier check-in; cons: farther from the city and fewer transfer or amenity options compared with DXB.
