Kolkata Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport (CCU) offers you a high-quality passenger experience as you begin your journey from Eastern India’s largest airport. We recommend allowing at least two hours before departure to complete check-in and customs clearance at the International Concourse.
Travelling to the airport is straightforward. While the old train service is being upgraded, reliable transport options include shuttle buses, which are plentiful and air conditioned, or pre-paid Yellow Taxis for fair pricing. The expanding Metro system also runs until 10 pm, and the overground track operates until 6:30 pm via Dum Dum Junction. Car parking is currently limited, so plan your drop-off accordingly.
Before your flight, enjoy the airport’s modern amenities. You have access to three available lounges for relaxation. Public areas provide Wi-Fi access, with the first 30 minutes free, alongside several Internet cafés. Food vendors offer a good choice of light refreshments, including the ubiquitous chai, and both local Indian and international cuisine. For last-minute gifts or accessories, you can explore a range of retail outlets selling quality local goods and high-end perfumes and leather goods.
Bucharest is the vibrant capital of Romania, known for its elegant architecture and dynamic, forward-looking energy. You will find a fascinating European city that perfectly blends a rich history with contemporary urban development.
Discover the city’s heart in the Old Centre, or Lipscani, where narrow, cobbled streets lead you past elegant 19th-century façades and the historic ruins of the medieval court of the Wallachian princes. This district is perfect for exploring the city's unique character. For a sense of Romania's cultural heritage, explore the Village Museum, a large open-air complex showcasing around 300 traditional buildings from every region of the country, providing a wonderful insight into traditional Romanian life. Be sure to visit the massive Parliament Palace, located near Piaţa Unirii, which is one of the world’s largest administrative buildings and a truly imposing sight in the city centre.
