British Airways has frequent flights to Bucharest. Flights land at Bucharest’s Henri Coanda International Airport, ten miles north of Bucharest city centre. Catch the Express bus after your flight to Bucharest and in 60 minutes you’ll be pulling into Bucharest city centre. Get off the bus at Piata Victorei square for the Belle Epoque beauty of Bucharest’s centre, or stretch your legs in Bucharest’s Cismigiu Park – the perfect way to start your holiday after your flight to Bucharest.
When your flight to Bucharest lands, you can take the 783 Express bus into Bucharest’s city centre in around an hour. Get off at any stop between the Arch of Triumph and Piata Unirii square to connect to Bucharest’s underground network after your flights. Or take a taxi from outside Bucharest Airport’s international flight departures hall for an easy trip to your Bucharest hotel.
After your flight, stroll along Bucharest’s wide, tree-lined boulevards. Take in the colossal, communist-era Palace of Parliament and Bucharest’s majestic concert hall, the domed Romanian Athenaeum. Lose yourself wandering around Lipscani, Bucharest’s old quarter, with its enigmatic maze of narrow, cafe-lined lanes and streets. Trace Bucharest’s beginnings back to the Curtea Veche ruins of the old princely court, and find out what happened in between at the fascinating Museum of the Romanian Peasant. Before your return flight from Bucharest, stock up on fine Romanian wine to take home. Or squeeze a handmade peasants’ dress into your flight bag as a souvenir of your trip to Bucharest.
