Băneasa or Otopeni?

Otopeni (OTP) is Bucharest's main airport, while Băneasa (BBU) is the closer alternative to the city centre. Since 2025, Băneasa Airport has once again handled scheduled passenger flights.

Practically: land where your flight lands. If that is Băneasa, the handover is quicker, you are closer to town, and the transfer costs €15 instead of €20 per leg. The car, the insurance and the deposit are identical either way.
