Bucharest Henri Coandă International Airport

Henri Coandă International Airport is about 16.5 km (10 miles) north of central Bucharest, in the town of Otopeni. The drive takes about 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic. Trains reach Gara de Nord in about 20 to 25 minutes, and express bus 100 reaches Piața Unirii in about 35 to 50 minutes.

Yes. Henri Coandă International Airport is in the town of Otopeni, just north of Bucharest, and was called Bucharest Otopeni International Airport until 2004. Many people still call it Otopeni. It is a different airport from Băneasa (Aurel Vlaicu), the smaller Bucharest airport closer to the city.

The airport has one terminal made up of a Departures Hall and an Arrivals Hall, linked by a walkway with shops. An airside finger concourse holds the gates, 38 in total and 14 with jet bridges, divided into Schengen and non-Schengen areas. All airlines use the same terminal, so there are no terminal transfers to plan.

TAROM, Romania's national airline, is based at the airport and flies to domestic cities and across Europe and the Middle East. Wizz Air, Ryanair, HiSky and AnimaWings add many European routes. Lufthansa, Turkish Airlines, Qatar Airways, flydubai, KLM, Air France and British Airways link Bucharest with their hubs. All flights use the single terminal.

Order a taxi at the touch-screen kiosks in the Arrivals Hall. Choose a company, take the printed ticket showing your car, and meet it outside the terminal. The kiosk system was introduced to stop overcharging by unlicensed drivers, so ignore anyone offering a ride inside the hall. Make sure the meter is running.

Yes. Trains run from the airport station, across the road from the Arrivals building, to Gara de Nord, Bucharest's main railway station. The trip takes about 20 to 25 minutes, with trains around every 40 minutes, 24 hours a day. CFR Călători and Transferoviar Călători operate the service, and a metro line to the airport is under construction.

Express bus 100 runs day and night between the airport and Piața Unirii in central Bucharest. It replaced the old line 783 in December 2023 and runs every 15 minutes by day and every 30 minutes at night. The trip takes about 35 to 50 minutes. Line 780 also runs to Gara de Nord.

Yes. Uber and Bolt both operate at Henri Coandă airport. The pickup point is shown in the app and has been in the car park outside the terminal, but it can change, so follow the app's directions. Check that the licence plate matches your booking before you get in.

Romania has been a full member of the Schengen Area since 1 January 2025, so flights from other Schengen countries have no passport control. Non-EU travelers are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES), fully operational since 10 April 2026; the planned ETIAS travel authorization is not yet in operation. Check visa rules for your nationality before travel.

Brașov is not linked directly to the airport by public transport. The usual route is the airport train to Gara de Nord, then a mainline train to Brașov. Travelers with luggage or groups often choose a taxi or pre-booked car for the whole trip by road instead.

Take the airport train to Gara de Nord, where trains leave for Constanța on the Black Sea coast, the main city on the coast. Road travel by car or pre-booked transfer avoids the change in Bucharest. Check current train times with CFR Călători before you travel.

Bucharest is on Eastern European Time (UTC+2) and moves to summer time (UTC+3) from the last Sunday of March to the last Sunday of October, one hour ahead of Vienna and Berlin. Romania uses the leu (RON), not the euro, and ATMs are available at the airport.

The airport is run by Compania Națională Aeroporturi București, the state company that also manages Băneasa airport. Henri Coandă handled about 17 million passengers in 2025, passing that mark for the first time, up about 6.6% on 2024. It has two parallel runways, each 3,500 m long.
