Bucharest Băneasa – “Aurel Vlaicu” International Airport (BBU), among the European airports with the most dynamic passenger traffic growth

This evolution highlights the dynamism of the aviation market in Bucharest and the wider region, as well as the growing interest in the services and destinations operated from Băneasa Airport.
