Romania is the twelfth largest country and one of the most affordable destinations to visit in Europe. Due to its location, you can find a lot of direct flights to Romania via both European and Asian airlines. Here’s a short Romania travel guide.

The high season to fly to Romania is from May till September. Prices usually go up during the summer and booking in advance is highly recommended. Travelers come to Romania to swim in the Black Sea during their summer holidays.

The best time for flights to Romania in terms of prices (but without sacrificing the quality) is from October till April. Mountain resorts are the most popular destinations. They offer slopes and lifts for active skiers and snowboarders of different skill levels, as well as equipped mountain trails and five-star hotels nearby for anyone looking for premium comfort and serene rest.

Passenger trains, electric trains, buses, taxis, and planes are at your disposal.

Usually, all means of the city public transport operate non-stop from 5:00 till 23:00. You can buy tickets at stalls near the stops.

As for intercity connections, there are buses, trains, and planes. Usually, direct inner air transportation is rare and relatively expensive. It is better to use a bus or train to get around and between big cities like Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Timișoara, Iași or Constanța. The same goes for smaller towns, such as Craiova, Brașov, Galați, and Ploiești, which can also be interesting for tourists.

As soon as you find international flights to Romania, make sure to know how to get to the city from the airport and return.
