Taxis are readily available at a designated stand in front of the airport terminal. The journey to Craiova's city center is short, typically taking 15-20 minutes. Ride-sharing services like Uber and Bolt also operate in Craiova and provide service to and from the airport.
Several car rental companies have desks inside the arrivals hall. Options include both international brands (Avis, Hertz, Sixt, Europcar) and major Romanian providers (Autonom). It is recommended to book your vehicle in advance, especially during peak travel seasons, to ensure availability and better rates.
The airport is connected to the city by the local public transport authority, RAT Craiova. Bus Route 9 links the airport directly with the city center and the main railway station (Gara Craiova). The bus stop is located just outside the terminal building, offering a very affordable way to reach the city.
After spending almost a year clearing formalities regarding flight approval to Romania (my plane has only permit to fly not airworthiness certificate) I finaly landed there. All OK, but the landing fee of EUR 130 for a 600kg MTOW airplane is outrageously expensive. No fuel, (virtually) no ARO - they advised me to submit the flight plan at least 3 hours before flight (I did it over phone to LJLJ ARO one four before), ...
Otherwise quite pleasant and friendly (and empty - guess why).
