There were also flights to Otopeni from Alghero, Brindisi, Genoa, Lamezia Terme, Palermo, Perugia and Verona. Those were summer-schedule flights; check the winter timetable, which starts on 25 October. Băneasa is Bucharest’s smaller airport, in the north of the city.
From Bucharest, the train is the easiest way on to Brașov:
- From Otopeni: CFR’s airport train runs 24 times a day from the Aeroport Henri Coandă station to București Nord (Gara de Nord) and takes 25 minutes. Change there to one of about 20 direct trains a day to Brașov; take an InterRegio (IR) or InterCity (IC) train, the fastest of which take 2 h 15 min. A second-class InterRegio ticket from Gara de Nord costs 75 lei. The CFR journey planner sells the airport-to-Brașov journey as one ticket: on the day we checked, the 06:32 airport train with IC 535 cost 87.26 lei and reached Brașov at 09:36.
- From Băneasa: there is no train from this airport. Take a Bolt or Uber to Gara de Nord, about 9 km by road (14 minutes without traffic, according to OpenStreetMap routing), and catch the train there.
- Landing late or with a lot of luggage: minibuses leave Otopeni Arrivals for Brașov until late evening.
Timetables, fares and the minibus operators are in our Bucharest to Brașov guide.
