Overview

Tucked into the heart of Transylvania, Sibiu is one of Romania's most beautiful cities — a former European Capital of Culture with a pastel-coloured old town, cobbled squares and a skyline of eyelid-shaped rooftop windows that seem to watch the streets below. It's an increasingly popular choice for UK travellers seeking a short break that mixes medieval charm, mountain scenery and excellent value for money. Whether you're after a culture-packed city break or a base for exploring the Carpathians, cheap flights to Sibiu open up one of Central Europe's most underrated destinations.

Best time to fly to Sibiu

Late spring and summer (May to September) bring warm, dry weather and Sibiu's lively festival calendar, including the renowned Sibiu International Theatre Festival each June. Autumn is quieter and pleasantly mild, ideal for hiking in the nearby Cindrel Mountains. December is a highlight in its own right, as Sibiu's Christmas Market is regularly ranked among Europe's best. For the best value, check the When to book chart above, as fares can shift noticeably between peak summer, festive season and the quieter winter and early spring months.

Airlines and routes

Wizz Air operates direct flights to Sibiu from London Luton, with a flight time of around three hours — the most straightforward option for UK travellers. When direct availability is limited or you're flying from elsewhere in the UK, connecting via major European hubs such as Vienna, Munich or Bucharest with carriers including Austrian Airlines, Lufthansa or TAROM is a reliable alternative, typically adding a couple of hours' travel time. Use the price charts on this page to compare both direct and connecting options for your dates.

Things to do in Sibiu

Sibiu rewards slow exploration, with much of its charm found simply wandering between squares and courtyards. Highlights include:

Piața Mare (Grand Square): the city's baroque heart, ringed by colourful merchant houses and pavement cafés.

The Bridge of Lies: a wrought-iron footbridge steeped in local legend, linking the Upper and Lower Towns.

Brukenthal National Museum: one of Romania's oldest art museums, housed in a grand 18th-century palace.

ASTRA National Museum Complex: a vast open-air museum showcasing traditional Transylvanian village life amid forest and lakeside trails.

Council Tower: climb for sweeping views over the old town's red rooftops and distant mountains.

At Sibiu International Airport (SBZ)

Sibiu International Airport sits just 4km from the city centre, making it one of the most convenient regional airports to reach. Taxis are readily available outside arrivals and take around ten minutes into town at a modest cost, while local buses also connect the airport to the centre for those travelling light.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Sibiu

Book roughly six to ten weeks ahead for the best balance of choice and price, or earlier for summer and Christmas market travel.

Flying midweek, particularly Tuesdays or Wednesdays, is usually cheaper than weekend departures.

Keep your travel dates flexible where possible — shifting by just a day or two can uncover better fares.

Compare direct Wizz Air flights against connecting itineraries via Vienna or Munich, as the cheapest option isn't always the most direct one.

Travel essentials

UK passport holders don't need a visa for tourist visits to Romania of up to 90 days in any 180-day period — just make sure your passport is valid for your trip. The local currency is the Romanian Leu (RON), so it's worth carrying some cash for smaller cafés and markets, though cards are widely accepted in the city centre. No specific vaccinations are required for entry, and standard UK travel insurance and EHIC/GHIC cover for EU travel applies.
