Bucharest is served primarily by Henri Coandă International (OTP), the main international gateway and airline hub located about 16–20 km north of the city center. OTP typically handles full-service carriers and many low-cost operators, so fares can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on the carrier. Transfer options include express train or suburban rail (about 20–30 minutes, low fares), shuttle buses and regular buses (30–60 minutes, very affordable), taxis or rideshares (30–50 minutes, mid-range cost) and private transfers. Pros: extensive international connections and modern terminal facilities; cons: transfer times depend on traffic and certain services can be busy during peak periods.
A lower-profile option for some travelers is Bucharest Băneasa Aurel Vlaicu (BBU), located much closer to the center in the northern district, roughly 6–8 km away. Historically used by regional and business flights, BBU can be more convenient for short domestic or regional trips and may offer quicker check-in and shorter transfers. Ground links include taxis and rideshares (10–20 minutes, moderate fares) and local buses (20–40 minutes, very cheap). Pros: proximity to central Bucharest and quicker ground transfers; cons: limited international routes and fewer airline choices compared with the main airport.
Vilnius Airport (VNO) serves as Lithuania’s main international gateway and typically handles a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers, including national and regional routes across Europe. It’s located about 6–7 km north of the city centre, with taxi rides usually taking 15–25 minutes and public buses or shuttles around 20–35 minutes depending on traffic; fares for buses are commonly modest while taxis can be noticeably higher. The airport can be convenient for quick city access and often feels compact and easy to navigate, though peak times may bring queues and limited lounge options compared with larger hubs. Car rental and rideshare services are also readily available.
