Private Airport Transfers in Bucharest

Private Airport Transfers in Bucharest

Bucharest Henri Coandă International Airport (OTP) is 16 kilometres north of the city centre. The arrivals area has an active unofficial taxi problem — unlicensed drivers stand outside the exit doors and approach passengers with flat rates that are 3–5× the legitimate fare. This is specifically flagged by UK, French, and German travel advisories for Romania. A LocalsRide private car has a named, verified driver waiting for you; if your offer includes a name sign, you identify them before reaching the exits.

Frequently asked questions

Unlicensed drivers stand outside OTP exits and quote €30–60 for journeys worth €12–20. Inside arrivals, the Fly Taxi counter is legitimate. If you ask for a name sign, each offer shows whether the LocalsRide driver will meet you with one inside arrivals; if so, locate them before proceeding to the exit, and if not, you agree a pick-up point with the driver. Bolt and Uber operate from the carpark.
