Bucharest & OTP eSIM guide: land at OTP with your first route already online.
Henri Coandă Airport has a direct rail link to Bucharest North. Current airport and CFR information says trains run 24 hours a day at roughly 40-minute intervals, with the journey taking about 20–25 minutes. Pre-installing an eSIM still makes the arrival smoother because your connection can continue when airport Wi-Fi ends and the first transport, ticket or hotel task begins.
The useful part of airport connectivity begins when you leave OTP: maps, tickets and accommodation directions need to keep working.
LOCAL CONNECTIVITY
Plan around the moments you will actually need data.
OTP ARRIVALUse airport connectivity as a fallback
Pre-installing before OTP means maps and transport are available immediately; the airport-to-city rail connection is especially easy to use when your ticket and destination are already on the phone.
CITY TRANSFERKeep the first route live

Can I install an eSIM after landing at OTP?+
Usually yes if you have internet access, but installing before travel is simpler and avoids a setup task after arrival.
Do I need mobile data for the trip from OTP?+
Not strictly, but it is useful for current directions, ticket access, hotel messages and handling a route change.
Is Romania covered by EU/EEA roaming?+
Eligible EU/EEA plans generally receive Roam Like At Home treatment here within fair-use rules.
How much data do I need around Bucharest & OTP?+
A short city stay can use only a few gigabytes for maps, messages and browsing. Heavy video or tethering can require much more.
Should I rely only on airport Wi-Fi at OTP?+
Airport Wi-Fi is useful for setup and messages, but mobile data keeps working after you leave the terminal and is more practical for transport and navigation.
