If from another country, the fastest way to get to Bucharest is by plane. Bucharest has Romania’s biggest airports, the Henri Coanda International Airport (OTP). Located at 16.5 km (10.3 mi) north of Bucharest's city center, the Henri Coanda is one of the busiest airports in Romania.

Companies from all over the world land on this airport. The airport is also base of operations for low-cost airlines Blue Air, Ryanair and Wizz Air, just as TAROM (Romania’s national airline).

Getting to Drupal HackCamp

Getting from the airport to the city center is rather easy. There are three main variants on how to get to the Sheraton Hotel or to the city center. We’ve listed them by price from low to high.

Right after leaving the arrival area of the airport, you will see signs towards the bus station. The tickets cost around 2 euros (you will need to buy a magnetic card and the actual tickets).We recommend to take the 783 bus and to descend at “Piata Romana” (the 14th stop).

By bus

Good news: taxis are really cheap in Romania.A taxi may be from 10 euros to 30 euros depending on the company. Still, an Uber may be the best choice, as you will pay around 5 to 10 euros.

By taxi

We do not advise to rent a car, but if you want to see Bucharest’s surrounding regions or other cities of Romania, this may be a good call.Rent-a-car

If choosing Ryanair, pay attention to book your tickets for Bucharest. While it may be tempting to book a ticket for other locations in Romania such as Craiova, Oradea or Timisoara, this may end up in a more expensive and long trip to Bucharest.
