Transfers in Timișoara
Timișoara is the largest city in western Romania and a big industrial and university centre. It sits close to both Hungary and Serbia, so many travellers use a nearby foreign airport instead of a Romanian one.
Timișoara Airport
Traian Vuia International Airport (TSR) is about 12 km north-east of the city centre, a 20-minute drive. A private transfer to the centre usually costs around €20–30.
Transfers to Belgrade, Budapest and Vienna
Popular cross-border routes from Timișoara are:
- Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport – about 170 km, 2.5–3 hours
- Budapest Airport – about 300 km, around 4 hours
- Vienna Airport – about 6 hours
Allow extra time for border queues, especially on summer weekends and holidays.
Minibus, coach and employee transport
Local companies run Mercedes Sprinter vans, V-Class minivans and 20-seat coaches for groups, excursions and team-building trips. Many factories in Timiș County use daily employee transport, so these companies are used to corporate contracts and invoices.
For other parts of Romania see Cluj Airport and Bucharest Airport.
