Alexeni Airfield


Alexeni airfield was a military airfield, which was proposed as a new low-cost airport for Bucharest, located in the Alexeni town, in Ialomiţa County, at 60 km north-east of the capital city of Romania.
Until 2001 a Romanian Air Force military helicopter unit was based on this airfield. Former Minister of Transport Radu Berceanu suggested the location for Bucharest's new low-cost flights airport. However, some analysts considered the project unrealistic and doomed to fail due to the poor conditions of the infrastructure in the area.
As of April 2013 those plans have been abandoned and all Bucharest's low-cost flights were moved at Henri Coandă International Airport in March 2012.
