RON 6.50 covers Cfr Călători trains bought from the ticket office (up to 3–5 minutes before departure), the website, the app, kiosk machines, onboard contactless terminals, or SMS to 7458 (valid 30 minutes from purchase); a reserved seat costs RON 4.50 more, unnecessary on a 25-minute ride. TransFeroviar charges the same RON 6.50, cash or card, at its offices or on board. From the conductor the fare is RON 13, and RON 41 for anyone checked with no ticket at all. Children under 5 ride free without a seat, with a 50% reduction to age 10. A monthly pass is RON 141, five days RON 48, on either operator.

Worth knowing
Buy before you board or pay double. RON 6.50 from the office, the machine, the app or the terminal on the train; RON 13 from the conductor. CFR prints the warning in bold on its own page.
Two operators share this route at the same RON 6.50 fare, but neither ticket works on the other's train: Cfr Călători runs 24 trains a day, TransFeroviar 12. Buy from whichever operator's train you are boarding, or use the STB 24-hour tourist card, which covers TransFeroviar too.
Trains run around the clock, about every 40 minutes. CFR departs at 00:32, 01:12 and 02:32; TransFeroviar at 01:52, 03:12, 04:32, 07:52, 09:12, 10:32, 11:12, 11:52, 12:32, 13:12, 13:52, 14:32, 15:12, 15:52, 21:12, 21:52, 22:32 and 23:12.
Twenty-five minutes on both operators' timetables to Gara de Nord (CFR's page says 20 to 25, the airport's says about 20); 21 the other way, from Gara de Nord to the airport.
Onboard contactless terminals are listed as an RON 6.50 channel, but in December 2024 the same terminals, run by a third party, charged 32 bani extra. Expect RON 6.50, and possibly a few bani more.
