Cheap flights from Bucharest to Amsterdam

Shoulder weeks before March tend to offer better value than peak periods, and March itself is typically the cheapest month on this route. Summer travel around July and August draws more passengers, while school holidays in December push prices up. Booking a weekday departure often saves money compared to weekends. If your schedule allows flexibility, spreading searches across several dates helps identify the lowest fares available.

The route carries both low-cost operators like Wizz Air Malta, Norwegian International, Ajet, Pegasus and HiSky alongside full-service carriers such as KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Tarom, LOT Polish Airlines, Air Serbia and British Airways. Some airlines fly direct while others connect through Warsaw, Belgrade or Istanbul before reaching Schiphol. Low-cost tickets usually include only hand luggage unless you pay extra for checked bags. Full-service fares generally cover at least one piece of hold baggage plus a meal on longer flights.

Schiphol sits about fifteen kilometres west of Amsterdam's centre and connects to the city by train every few minutes from outside arrivals. You can also take a bus or taxi, though trains are faster during rush hours. Allow extra time if you have connecting flights within Europe since immigration checks may apply depending on your origin. The terminal is compact enough that walking between gates rarely takes more than twenty minutes.
