Arrival by plane

Romania has several international airports, the closest to Brașov are and Otopeni Henri Coandă International Airport (OTP) in Bucharest (124.82 km) and Sibiu International Airport (SBZ) (117.21 km). We recommend flying to Otopeni Henri Coandă International Airport (OTP) in Bucharest since it is the one that has many transfer options to Brașov.

Since 2023, Brașov has its airport close to the city, Brașov-Ghimbav International Airport (GHV) (3,87 km). Even though few flight connections are available at the moment, the list keeps on growing, so when booking your flight, we suggest you check if any airport near your largest cities is connected to GHV and can be a better option than OTP.

How to get from Bucharest airport to Brașov?

There are many options to travel from Bucharest to Brașov.
The best options are by shuttle transfer, train, or rent a car.

1.We recommend taking the shuttle transfer, especially if your flight arrives any hour during the nighttime when trains have no connections.
Furthermore, they can pick you up from the airport (so you won’t need to go to Bucharest North Railway Station) and take you straight to Brașov’s city center or any indicated address.
Available for individual travelers or groups of up to 8 passengers, these transfer services can be booked in a private or shared vehicle. Prices go between 25-30 euros/person.
Many private companies offer these services, among which we recommend the following:

See train schedules here: https://mersultrenurilor.infofer.ro/en-GB/Itineraries
OR you can also take a taxi to/from the airport. However, to ensure that you, as a foreigner, will not be overcharged for your trip with the local taxi company, we recommend booking your ride using the UBER or BOLT apps. When you call for a car in the ride-sharing application, you will immediately see the price of the trip, otherwise, the taxi driver may establish his price and overcharge you.
All the trains from Bucharest to Brașov depart from the Bucharest North Railway Station (Gara de Nord).
There are around 30 connections each day so you can easily choose the train that works the best for you, but keep in mind that there are no connections to Brașov during the night. The journey time varies depending on the connection, the fastest trains take a bit less than 2.5 hours between Bucharest and Brașov. When planning your trip, check the journey time too so you can choose the best connection.
There are a few train companies that serve this route, the official Romanian railway – CFR Calatori but also other private companies.
You can use this website for the schedules of all the Bucharest to Brașov trains: https://mersultrenurilor.infofer.ro/en- GB/Itineraries
We recommend buying your train ticket for the Bucharest to Brașov (or Brașov to Bucharest) trip online. Tickets cost may vary between 15–25 euros.
If you come by train from Western Europe, you will arrive at the Central Station in Brașov. International trains from Paris, Berlin, Munich, or Vienna to Bucharest stop in Brașov.

3.Bucharest to Brașov by car
You can also drive yourself from Bucharest/Otopeni Airport to Brașov. The trip should take around 2.5 - 3 hours but keep in mind that in the mountainous part, the road narrows on a single lane and therefore usually gets blocked withtraffic easily, especially between Sinaia and Brașov, so that could lead to a delay of several hours for the whole trip.
