Bucharest is served by two main airports. Henri Coandă (OTP) north of the city is the primary international hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carriers as well as many low-cost flights; it’s usually perceived as mid-priced compared with the region. Located about 16–20 km from central Bucharest, transfers by bus or express train typically take 30–50 minutes and taxis or app-based rides cost roughly €10–€25 depending on traffic. Pros: more flight choices, modern terminals and connection options; cons: can be busy at peak times and slightly farther from the center. Aurel Vlaicu/ Băneasa (BBU) closer to the north of the city historically served business and short-haul budget routes and can be used for some low-cost or charter services; it’s typically positioned as a domestic and short-haul convenience rather than a major international hub. Only about 8 km from downtown, it’s reachable in 15–30 minutes by taxi or local bus with modest fares, though service can be limited outside peak hours. Pros: quick access to the city and shorter transfer times; cons: fewer airlines and amenities compared with the larger airport.

Skopje International Airport (SKP) serves as North Macedonia’s main international gateway and typically handles a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines, making it a practical hub for both business and budget travelers. Located about 17 km north of the city center, transfer options usually include buses (roughly 30–40 minutes), taxis (20–30 minutes) and private shuttles; expect bus fares to be modest and taxi rides to vary with traffic. The airport is compact and easy to navigate, which can speed up connections, though peak periods may feel crowded and on-site amenities are relatively limited compared with larger regional hubs. Overall it’s a convenient entry point for accessing Skopje and nearby attractions.
