Traffic in Romania is heavily concentrated: Henri Coanda International Airport (OTP) alone handles about 14.9 million passengers a year, roughly 99% of the 15 million across the 4 airports listed here. That pattern is typical of a country with one dominant hub carrier feeding a single gateway.

Between them these airports operate 5 runways serving 3 cities, all on a single national clock. Every airport below links to a live map of aircraft observed within available ADS-B coverage around the field.

The airports are spread across roughly 1 degrees of latitude and 7 degrees of longitude. The network is geographically compact enough that most domestic sectors remain comparatively short. Field elevations vary less dramatically than they do in the world's mountain-airport networks. The average across this selected set is 1.2 runways per airport.

Read airport by airport, the selected Romania network is not interchangeable: Henri Coanda International Airport (OTP) has 2 runways and about 14.9 million annual passengers, Mihail Kogălniceanu International Airport (CND) has 1 runway and no comparable traffic figure, Timișoara Traian Vuia International Airport (TSR) has 1 runway and no comparable traffic figure and Bucharest Băneasa Aurel Vlaicu International Airport (BBU) has 1 runway and no comparable traffic figure. Those differences matter when comparing a live map. A larger passenger total indicates schedule scale, while runway count describes physical layout; neither number by itself proves how delayed, connected or operationally efficient an airport will be on a particular day.

With 4 gateways in this data cut, the Romania hierarchy is readable directly: OTP contributes 99% of the represented passenger total, CND contributes 0% of the represented passenger total, TSR contributes 0% of the represented passenger total and BBU contributes 0% of the represented passenger total. That makes OTP the first gateway here without reducing CND to a minor field, since its traffic is about 0% of OTP's.

The physical ranking differs from the traffic ranking: OTP has 2 listed runways, CND has 1 listed runway, TSR has 1 listed runway and BBU has 1 listed runway. CND is the highest of the group at 353 ft, against 297 ft at BBU. Those facts describe layout and setting, not a live capacity forecast; weather, active runway configuration and traffic flow still decide what a viewer sees on the map at a given hour.

What stands out in Romania

  • Leading gateway: Henri Coanda International Airport (OTP), with an annual reference figure of roughly 14.9 million passengers.

The operators we see most often on those movements are Qatar Airways, Iberia, Lufthansa, KIAS Airlines, Wizz Air. That reflects which carriers fly where our coverage is, not which are largest in Romania: an airline flying mostly at hours we sample less often will be under-represented here.
