Travelling and COVID-19
We kindly ask you to also check the COVID-19 regulations of your intermediate stops during your travel (if the case).

Accommodation and working conditions

The event will be organised in respect to the conditions and recommendations of the local authorities in charge.

We recommend you to wear surgical or FFP2 masks throughout the entire event, inside the location. Physical distancing of minimum 1 metre between participants will be ensured. Masks can be removed outside, but appropriate physical distancing shall continue to be respected. To be effective, the surgical mask is recommended to be changed every 4 hours and the FFP2 mask every 7 hours.

Hand-cleansing gel will be available throughout the event location. As an additional measure, we encourage you to wash your hands with soap and water as often as possible.

Measures to follow if a case of COVID-19 virus is suspected

The person must:

1. Self-isolate in his/her hotel room

In case of COVID-19 suspicion, the NA team can provide rapid COVID-19 testing. Please bear in mind that the number of rapid tests is limited and will be distributed at the request of participants with symptoms. Rapid COVID-19 tests are also available for purchase in any local pharmacy.

Participants tested positive to COVID-19 or identified as COVID-19 contacts during their stay may have to be quarantined for 5 days, in line with locally applicable rules.

Currency is the Romanian leu ([lew], plural lei [lej]; code: RON).

The current exchange rate is quite stable at approx. 5 lei for 1 EUR. The exact rate can be found at: https://bnr.ro/Home.aspx
About making payments in lei/euros upon arrival in Bucharest: you can t make any payments in euro, only in Lei.

But you should know that there is an exchange bureau in the airport, you can make the euro-lei exchange transaction over there or you can pay by card in any other places in Bucharest: when buying or paying a bus trip, in regular stores/markets (not in regular taxi you find in the airport, only when you call for one- so, the way back to the airport from the hotel, the reception can call a taxi for you, asking to be possible to pay by card).

Shortly, for the first trip to the hotel, in case you want to take a taxi, use the exchange bureau in airport, afterwards we can support you during your staying.

By train + by subway
There is a train going from the airport to Gara de Nord/North Train Station. The train station is in front on the parking of the Arrivals hall. It runs every 40 minutes and it takes around 20-25 minutes to get to the train station. All the necessary info about the train can be found here. Once you arrive at the North Train Station, head to the subway station. Take M1 (yellow line) in Pantelimon direction. Get off at Petrache Poenaru. Walk for around 5 minutes (Dâmbovița river on your left hand side). See the map here.

By bus + by subway
The 783 Express line connects Bucharest Henri Coandă International Airport with the city center. Take the bus from outside the Domestic Arrival Terminal (go one level down from the Arrival Hall, at the ground floor). In the bus stop there is a kiosk from where you can buy a Multiplu card (details here) that you can charge for your trip (two ways for around 1.7 Euro); or you can pay by card inside the bus. Get off at stop Piata Victoriei. From Piata Victoriei you have to go to the subway and take the M1 line in the direction Pantelimon (yellow line) and get off at Petrache Poenaru. Walk for around 5 minutes (Dâmbovița river on your left hand side). See the map here.

By taxi
You can take a taxi from the taxi station located at the exit of the terminal (but be carful as those often charge several times more) so better take it by ordering one from the counters in the Arrivals hall (to the left as you reach the Arrivals hall). Be aware that fares may vary from 1.89 to 3.5 lei/km (1 Euro = approx. 5 lei) and that, depending on traffic, the journey can take from 30 minutes to 60 minutes. For taxi you should be able to pay in cash, in the national currency. More info here. We are aware that some taxi drivers may try to extra-extra charge you!! Therefore, please check the taxi fees and ask the driver. The ride should not be more than 50-60 lei.

By Uber

If you prefer to enjoy the quick city sight-seeing from a comfortable car, you can take an Uber. You already know the drill if you used it before. Just make sure you have the app on your mobile phone and the hotel address! Fares may vary depending on the distance and on the traffic hour, but should be around 12-15 Euro. More details here.
