How much is a flight from Bucharest to Riyadh?
"How much is the Bucharest to Riyadh flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours provides the current cost for your travel date shortly afterwards of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.
What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the electronic ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.
Cheapest flight from Bucharest to Riyadh: how to pay less
The cheapest flight from Bucharest to Riyadh is normally booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our booking desk applies on every booking:
- Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
- Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are generally cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
- Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which frequently carry the lowest fares
- Tell us if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
- Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
- Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
When you fill in the form, mention if you can move your dates. We scan the fares around them and send the cheapest Bucharest to Riyadh flight first, then the alternatives.

Our booking desk then messages you on WhatsApp to check your booking: we confirm the flights available that day, the airline, the baggage included and the cost. You choose, we book, and the e-ticket arrives in the same chat.
- Step 1 - send the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
- Step 2 - we message you by WhatsApp with the flights, the baggage included and the cost

Airlines flying from Bucharest to Riyadh
Turkish Airlines, Qatar Airways and flydubai fly the Bucharest to Riyadh route, with a connection in Istanbul, Doha or Dubai. They differ in baggage rules, seat pitch, meals and the airports they use as much as in price, so the cheapest fare is not always the best value. Haqqi Tours lays the options out plainly: which fare includes a checked bag, which airline flies at the time you want, and which is the better choice for a family or a business trip.
- Turkish Airlines - Bucharest to Riyadh
- Qatar Airways - Bucharest to Riyadh
- flydubai - Bucharest to Riyadh
Departure: Henri Coandă International Airport (Otopeni) (OTP)
Your journey starts at Henri Coandă International Airport (Otopeni) (OTP). We tell you the terminal for your airline, when check-in and bag drop close, and whether the airport has fast-track security worth booking. Bus 783 and the airport rail link reach Gara de Nord for a small fare, and the metro serves the centre; a private car from the terminal is simpler with luggage, for the Old Town at night, and for Sinaia, Brasov or Bran, which have no direct public transport from the airport.
- Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the e-ticket - names must match exactly
- Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
- Haqqi Tours offers a private transfer from your hotel in Bucharest to Henri Coandă International Airport (Otopeni)
- Just ask about the terminal and fast-track options at Henri Coandă International Airport (Otopeni)
Arrival: Riyadh King Khalid International Airport (RUH) and getting into Riyadh
Arrival is at Riyadh King Khalid International Airport (RUH), and the first decision is how to reach the city. Riyadh is the capital of Saudi Arabia, a vast grid city on the Najd plateau, with King Khalid International Airport (RUH) about 35 km north of the centre, the new metro linking the airport to the business districts, and the historic Diriyah and Masmak quarters at its heart. We provide airport transfers in Riyadh with a driver at arrivals, and we also tell you honestly if the train or metro from the airport is the better choice for where you are staying.
Many passengers continue from Riyadh to somewhere else. We provide those tickets too, so one WhatsApp conversation covers the whole itinerary.
Baggage, seats and classes on the Bucharest to Riyadh flight
On board, the Bucharest to Riyadh flight is about 7 hours 30 minutes: economy is perfectly comfortable, and business class adds a bigger seat, a meal and lounge access for those who want it. Baggage rules differ by airline and fare; children and infants have their own allowances. Let us know who is flying and what you are carrying and we choose accordingly.
- Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
- Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
- Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
- Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
Flying with children, families and groups from Bucharest to Riyadh
Families fly the Bucharest to Riyadh route with us week in, week out. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the carrier offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines. We seat the family together, order children's meals where they exist and choose a departure time that suits nap and bedtime. For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the airline for a group fare where the numbers justify it.
Things to do in Riyadh when you land
Kingdom Centre Sky Bridge, Masmak Fortress and the old Deira souk, At-Turaif in Diriyah, a World Heritage site, the National Museum and Boulevard World and Riyadh Season venues are what most travellers come to Riyadh for. Riyadh is the capital of Saudi Arabia, a vast grid city on the Najd plateau, with King Khalid International Airport (RUH) about 35 km north of the centre, the new metro linking the airport to the business districts, and the historic Diriyah and Masmak quarters at its heart. Eat kabsa, the national rice dish, Najdi jareesh and qursan and mandi in Al Malaz while you are there.
If you want the days in Riyadh organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it through WhatsApp.
Best time to fly from Bucharest to Riyadh
November to March is pleasant and busy with Riyadh Season events; summer is extremely hot and dry, and the King Fahd Road corridor is slowest at weekday rush hours. For the fare itself, the cheapest flights from Bucharest to Riyadh are found outside school holidays and major events, on mid-week days, booked early. Peak weeks sell out first and cost most; shoulder months give the best mix of weather, availability and price.
Return flight from Riyadh to Bucharest
We book the return leg from Riyadh to Bucharest just as easily, typically on the same ticket. Booking both directions together lets us compare a return fare against two singles - on some airlines the return is much cheaper, on others two one-ways with different carriers win. Tell us the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.
Is baggage included in the Bucharest to Riyadh flight ticket?
It depends on the fare: full-service fares normally include a checked bag, low-cost fares include a cabin bag only. We tell you exactly what is included before you book and add a suitcase at the cheaper booking rate if you need one.
Can I book a return flight from Riyadh to Bucharest?
Of course. Choose "return" on the form and give both dates; we compare a return fare with two singles and book the cheaper one. If the return date is not fixed, we clarify the flexible options.
Do children and infants need a ticket?
Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children two and over need a seat and typically pay a child fare. Give the ages on the form and we apply the right fares and seat the family together.
Can I choose my seat?
On most airlines, yes - free at check-in or for a small fee at booking. Let us know your preference through WhatsApp and we add it.
What is the difference between economy and business class?
Business class means a much larger seat, a meal, lounge access, priority boarding and normally a more flexible ticket; economy is the practical choice for a 7 hours 30 minutes flight. We send the cost of both.
What happens if I miss the flight?
It depends on the fare: the cheapest tickets are lost, flexible ones can be rebooked for a fee or free. We explain the rules of your fare before you pay and help on WhatsApp if something goes wrong on the day.
Can I change or cancel my flight ticket?
It depends on the airline and the fare class - flexible tickets can be changed, the cheapest typically cannot. We spell out the conditions before you confirm and handle any change for you afterwards.
Do I need to print the e-ticket?
No. The e-ticket and booking reference on your phone are all you need at check-in; we send both and remind you to bring the passport or ID used in the booking.
How early should I be at Henri Coandă International Airport (Otopeni)?
About two hours before an international flight and ninety minutes before a domestic one; more at peak times or if you have bags to check. Low-cost airlines close bag drop strictly on time.
Can Haqqi Tours arrange airport transfers?
Yes - a private car from your accommodation to Henri Coandă International Airport (Otopeni) and a driver waiting at Riyadh King Khalid International Airport, with flight tracking, on the same confirmation as the ticket.
Can I book the Bucharest to Riyadh flight for a group?
Yes. Give the number of passengers on the form; we book the seats together in one reservation and ask the carrier for a group fare where the numbers justify it.
When is the best time to book the Bucharest to Riyadh flight?
As soon as your dates are fixed. Low fare tiers open months ahead and rise as seats sell; holidays and summer departures fill first.
Is it better to fly or take the train from Bucharest to Riyadh?
On this route flying is the practical choice at about 7 hours 30 minutes; we provide trains too where they exist and say which is better for you.
What if my flight is delayed or cancelled?
The airline rebooks you and, depending on the rules that apply, may owe assistance or compensation; our WhatsApp desk helps you through it. If you have a transfer booked with us the driver tracks the flight.
Can I add extra baggage or sports equipment?
Yes. Extra bags, skis, golf clubs and bicycles are added at booking on most airlines, cheaper than at the airport. Let us know what you are carrying and we include it in the cost.
