Metropolitan direction
Romania's international airport in Bucharest is the country's largest air gate. It is located 16 km north of the city center and transfers to the capital are handled by trains, taxis and buses.
The railway station is located 900 meters from the terminal, but taxi drivers will be happy to help passengers with their luggage overcome this distance. In addition, in the arrivals halls you can buy tickets for the bus to the station. The travel documents should be kept as they are also valid on the railway.
Bucharest train station can be reached by direct bus line 780, and to the city center - by express line 783. Buses operate 24 hours a day. Taxis should be ordered using the sensor system in the arrivals hall - this way, unreasonably high prices can be avoided. Car rental is also available upon arrival - several offices offer their services to those who wish to have personal transport for the duration of the trip.
Airlines and destinations
The only building of the Bucharest air terminal is divided into two terminals, one of which is responsible for departure and the other for arrival. For passengers there are shops and a restaurant, an internet cafe, a game room located in the departure areas.
Among the air carriers operating flights to Budapest airport, there are many well-known European and Middle Eastern companies.
