Ground Transportation

Taxis

Licensed taxis can be ordered from touch-screen kiosks located in the Arrivals terminal. This system is recommended to ensure a fair, metered price. The kiosk issues a ticket with the assigned taxi's details. Ride-sharing services like Uber and Bolt are also available and operate from designated pick-up points outside the terminal.

Rental Cars

Numerous car rental companies have service desks in the passageway between the Arrivals and Departures terminals. Major international brands (like Avis, Hertz, Sixt, Europcar) and local providers (such as Autonom) are available. It is advisable to book in advance for better rates and guaranteed availability.

Public Transportation

The airport is connected to the city by both bus and train. The Express Bus line 100 runs 24/7, connecting the airport to the city center (Piața Unirii). The 'Henri Coandă Express' train offers a direct, 20-25 minute journey to the main railway station (Gara de Nord). Tickets for both services must be purchased from kiosks or ticket machines before boarding.

Henri Coandă International Airport Posted by Silvanus_Tauris on November 5, 2022

Bucharest Henri Coandă International Airport is Romania's busiest international airport, located in Otopeni, 16.5 km north of Bucharest's city centre. It is currently one of the two airports serving the capital of Romania. The other is Aurel Vlaicu Airport, which no longer serves scheduled passenger traffic.

The airport is named after Romanian flight pioneer Henri Coandă, builder of Coandă-1910 aircraft and discoverer of the Coandă effect of fluidics. Prior to May 2004, the official name was Bucharest Otopeni International Airport. Henri Coandă International Airport serves as headquarters for TAROM, the country's national airline. It also serves as a base of operations for low-cost airlines Animawings, Ryanair and Wizz Air and charter airlines Air Bucharest. It is managed by The National Company Bucharest Airports S.A. The military section of the airport is used by the 90th Airlift Flotilla of the Romanian Air Force.
