Flight
For anyone flying from the UK, the easiest option is with Wizz Air from London Luton to Constanța Airport. The flight takes about 3 hours, and from the airport it’s around 25–30 minutes by car to IAKI Hotel and the wedding venue. There are local taxis available at the airport, and Uber works there too, so getting to the hotel should be easy.
Flight
If you’d like even more flight options, consider flying into Bucharest Airport (OTP) instead of Constanța. Most UK cities have direct flights there, usually under 3 hours. From Bucharest, it’s about a 2½–3 hour drive to IAKI Hotel and the wedding venue on the coast. You’ll find airport taxis and Uber right outside arrivals, so it’s easy to arrange a comfortable transfer. Plus, it gives you flexibility with departure times and airlines!
