This news gives me great joy! Finally there’s a train linking Bucharest (Romania’s capital) to its international airport (called “Henry Coanda” but commonly -still- known as Otopeni).

Each day, a train leaves Gara de Nord (North Train Station)  every hour, starting from 5:15 a.m. until  10:15  p.m. The route is: Bucharest (Gara de Nord) -  Chitila - Mogosoaia - Balotesti. From Balotesti, you’ll take the bus to the airport.

The joruney takes about 40-45 min. The price is 6 RON (about $2) and you’ll be traveling in modern trains and buses. The price includes both fares.
