Bucharest is served primarily by Henri Coandă International (OTP), the main international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carriers, and the smaller Aurel Vlaicu/ Băneasa (BBU), which usually caters to low-cost and domestic flights. OTP sits about 16–18 km north of the city center, with express trains, regional buses, taxis and ride-hailing taking roughly 20–40 minutes depending on traffic; fares commonly range from low single digits for public transit to mid-teens EUR for taxis. BBU is closer — around 8 km — reachable by short taxi rides or city buses in about 15–30 minutes. OTP tends to be perceived as mid-range to premium for connections and services, while BBU can be cheaper but more basic. Pros: OTP offers wider airline choice and facilities; cons: transfers can be slower in peak traffic. BBU’s advantage is convenience for some short-haul routes, though amenities and frequency can be limited.

Tan Son Nhat (SGN) is Ho Chi Minh City’s primary international airport and the main gateway for most long-haul and regional carriers, typically serving full-service airlines alongside some low-cost carriers. Located about 6–8 km north of District 1, it can be reached by taxi or rideshare in roughly 20–40 minutes depending on traffic; public buses and airport shuttles take longer but are usually the cheapest option, with fares typically low. The airport is convenient for central districts and offers a wide range of lounges and services, though peak-hour congestion and occasional delays can affect comfort and punctuality. Can Gio and other small regional airfields are not commonly used for commercial passenger flights; instead, domestic travelers might use charter or helicopter services for remote or tourism-focused transfers. For domestic routes, low-cost carriers often operate from Tan Son Nhat, which can make budget travel possible but subject to variable pricing and seasonal sales. Ground transport to suburban or coastal areas may require longer transfers, so consider scheduled shuttles or private transfers for convenience and predictable travel time.
