ETIAS (EUR 7, valid 3 years) will apply once mandatory in late 2026.

Direct flights from London to Bucharest (OTP) run about 3 hours 20 minutes. Romania uses the Romanian leu (RON), trading at roughly 4.95 RON per EUR 1. Euros are not legal tender but many hotels accept them. Card payments are widespread in cities. No vaccination requirements for UK arrivals. Wizz Air and TAROM operate the London to Bucharest route with high frequency.
