Unable to find information about the schedule of direct flights from
Bucharest is served mainly by two airports. Henri Coandă International (OTP) north of the city is the primary international hub, handling most full-service and many low-cost carriers; it’s usually the choice for long-haul and business routes. The airport sits about 16–20 km from central Bucharest, with travel times of roughly 30–50 minutes by taxi or rideshare (fares often range from moderate to higher depending on traffic), and a dedicated express train and buses that can take 40–60 minutes for budget-conscious travelers. Pros: more services, lounges and direct connections; cons: can be busy and slightly farther out. Bucharest Băneasa (Aurel Vlaicu, BBU) is a smaller airport closer to the city center that historically handled domestic and short-haul leisure flights, often used by some low-cost airlines; it’s typically 6–8 km from downtown and reachable in 15–30 minutes by taxi or local bus at a low fare. Pros: convenience and shorter transfer times; cons: fewer facilities and limited route options compared with the main airport.

It’s about 8 miles (13 km) west of the Old Town, with tram and express bus links to the city centre typically taking 30–40 minutes; fares are usually in the low single-figure pounds. Taxis and rideshares cut travel time to around 25–30 minutes depending on traffic. The airport can be competitively priced on short-haul routes but fares vary by season and carrier. Pros include frequent connections and a compact terminal for relatively quick transfers; cons can be peak-time queues and limited late-night options compared with larger hubs.
