Cheap Flights from Seoul to Bucharest — $252

Seoul is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Incheon International (ICN) is the city’s main international gateway and a full-service hub for carriers like Korean Air and Asiana; it typically handles long-haul and premium traffic and can be perceived as mid-to-upper in price. Located about 48 km west of downtown, transfer to central Seoul usually takes 45–70 minutes by AREX train or airport limousine bus; fares are commonly in the mid-range for public transport and higher for taxis. Gimpo (GMP) is closer—around 15 km from the center—and functions as a domestic and short-haul regional airport, favored by low-cost and full-service domestic operators and some short international routes. Travel time from Gimpo is often 20–40 minutes by subway or bus, with lower fares and shorter taxi rides. Pros: ICN offers extensive facilities and international connections; Gimpo is quicker for domestic trips and easier for commuters. Cons: ICN’s distance can add transfer time and cost; Gimpo has fewer long-haul options and can be congested during peak periods.

Fly direct from Seoul to Bucharest for the fastest, most comfortable way to bridge Asia and Eastern Europe — fewer hassles, no long layovers, and more time to enjoy your trip. While some connecting options can be cheaper, choosing a direct flight saves hours and makes the journey far less stressful, perfect for business travelers and vacationers alike.

Bucharest is served primarily by Henri Coandă International (OTP), the city’s main international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carrier flights, while Aurel Vlaicu/Băneasa (BBU) can be a small-scale option for some low-cost and business services. OTP sits about 16–18 km north of the city center and is typically reachable by express train (~20–25 min) or by bus/shuttle (~40–60 min) with fares usually modest; taxis and rideshares take around 30–45 minutes depending on traffic and can be mid-priced. BBU is closer, roughly 8 km from central Bucharest, often quicker by car but with fewer scheduled routes. Pros: OTP offers wide connectivity and modern facilities; cons: it can feel busy and transfer times vary. BBU may be more convenient for short hops but provides limited services and carriers.
