Bucharest is served mainly by Henri Coandă International (OTP), the country’s larger, full-service gateway and a regional hub for several carriers, and Aurel Vlaicu/Băneasa (BBU), a smaller airport that can be used for budget or short-haul flights. OTP typically handles most long-haul and international services and is used by traditional and low-cost airlines alike, while BBU tends to host a more limited roster of regional or budget operators. Henri Coandă sits about 16–20 km north of the city center; travel options include express bus and regional trains (roughly 30–50 minutes) and taxis or ride-hailing (25–40 minutes), with fares that can range from modest public-transport prices to mid-range taxi charges. Băneasa is much closer—around 8 km north—allowing a short taxi or tram ride of about 15–25 minutes, often at lower transport cost but with fewer facilities. Pros: OTP offers broader connections and greater passenger amenities; BBU can be quicker to reach for north-city travelers and may be less hectic. Cons: OTP can be busy at peak times and transfer links may take longer; BBU has limited international routes and fewer services.

The airport is well equipped with lounges, shops and seasonal dining options, so comfort and amenities are strong points, while occasional peak-hour crowds and transfer waits can be a downside for tight connections.
