Vienna International Airport (VIE) is Austria’s main international hub and typically handles most long-haul and full-service carriers, alongside several low-cost airlines operating scheduled European routes. Located about 18 km southeast of the city center, transfer times are usually 15–25 minutes by City Airport Train (fastest) or 20–40 minutes by S-Bahn and regional buses; taxi rides can take similar time depending on traffic. Public transport fares are generally modest and trains cost more than buses but offer quicker journeys. Pros: efficient connections, good passenger facilities and frequent services into the city. Cons: can be busy during peak seasons and some budget options may use remote terminals or incur extra fees.

Bucharest is served mainly by Henri Coandă International (OTP) and the smaller Aurel Vlaicu/Băneasa (BBU). Henri Coandă, north of the city, is the principal international hub handling most full-service and many low-cost carriers; it’s typically where you’ll find longer-haul flights and better connectivity. Băneasa, closer to the center, can be used for domestic and short regional routes and sometimes by budget airlines, though its schedule is more limited. OTP is about 16–20 km from central Bucharest; taxis and ride-hailing usually take 25–40 minutes depending on traffic (fares often fall in a moderate range), while an express bus and shuttle options can take 40–60 minutes for lower cost. Băneasa sits roughly 8–10 km from downtown, reachable in 15–30 minutes by taxi or local buses; costs are typically lower but service frequency can vary. Pros: OTP offers broad airline choice and facilities; Băneasa can be quicker for near-city departures. Cons: OTP travel times can lengthen in peak traffic and Băneasa has fewer international connections and limited passenger services.

In different months, ticket prices from Vienna to Bucharest vary: minimum — $22 (June 2026), maximum — $129 (September 2026). Typically, the flight costs $53–$89.
