John Paul II Kraków–Balice Airport (KRK) is the main international gateway for Kraków and southern Poland, serving both full-service carriers and a strong budget airline presence. It is commonly seen as a mid-sized hub with regular connections across Europe and some seasonal long-haul services. The airport sits roughly 11 km west of the Old Town; transfer options include a 20–30 minute taxi ride, shuttle buses taking about 30–40 minutes, and a regional train that can reach the city center in around 20 minutes—fares are typically modest for public transport and higher for taxis. Pros: compact terminal, frequent low-cost flights, generally efficient security; cons: can be busy at peak times and some services may be limited compared with larger hubs.
Bucharest is served mainly by Henri Coandă International (OTP) and the smaller Aurel Vlaicu/ Băneasa (BBU). Henri Coandă is the city’s primary international hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carriers alongside several low-cost airlines; fares here can be mid-range to premium depending on carrier and season. It sits about 18–20 km north of central Bucharest, with transfers typically taking 30–50 minutes by car or taxi (roughly €10–€30) and 40–60 minutes by bus or express train for lower fares. Pros: more flight choices and modern facilities; cons: can be busy and traffic-dependent. Băneasa, closer at around 8 km, is mainly used for regional and some low-cost services; it can be quicker to reach (15–30 minutes by taxi for modest fares) but offers fewer connections and more basic amenities.
