“Starting with our winter schedule (from October i.e.), we will also operate from the Baneasa Airport, as well, it will be our fourth airport, alongside Otopeni, Cluj and Iasi,” Alicja Wojcik-Golebiowska, head of communications CEE, Ryanair, told ZF.

This will be Ryanair’s first time on the Baneasa Airport, where it will have five routes with a capacity of more than 270,000 passengers, she added.

With the new routes, Ryanair will be operating 44 from its four Romanian airports in the winter schedule.

The airline carried 3.6 million people to and from Romanian airports in 2024 and with the introduction of flights from Baneasa, it expects the number of passengers to increase to 4 million in 2025.
