Bucharest Baneasa (LRBS) serves as the main general aviation airport for Bucharest, with no scheduled airline traffic and a location close to the city. VFR arrivals typically require a long approach below 2000 ft under the LROP TMA, and ATC provides clear instructions in English. Handling is mandatory and coordinated efficiently, with agents speaking good English and responding promptly to email inquiries at ras@handling.ro. Payment for fees may involve a short transfer to the terminal or can sometimes be completed at the aircraft.
Fees for landing, handling, and parking vary; examples include about €80–100 for one or two nights, and around €40–50 for short stops. Example: landing, handling, and two nights about €80. For international departures, a fuel surcharge of €50 applies. Avgas is available from multiple suppliers, with payment sometimes requiring a visit to the fuel office; monitoring fuel meter readings is advised.
The airport offers a large parking area with little traffic and professional service. Facilities include an operations office for weather and flight planning, but on-field catering is not always available at the GA terminal. Transport into central Bucharest takes about 15 minutes by taxi or is possible via Uber; caution is advised when using local taxis—ensure meters are running from zero.
Border control is available on site. Procedures vary; see AIP/NOTAM. LRBS is well suited for non-commercial general aviation flights seeking efficient access to Bucharest.
