Why Bucharest OTP?

Bucharest Henri Coandă International Airport is Romania’s main international aviation gateway. Bucharest Airports’ 2025 cargo statistics show 43,947 tonnes handled, compared with 37,913 tonnes in 2024. For China-origin cargo, Bucharest can serve the Romanian market and support onward road distribution into Central and Eastern Europe.

Built for Larger Air Cargo Shipments

Regular passenger-flight belly capacity can work well for smaller shipments, but larger air cargo often requires a different solution. The URC–OTP freighter option can be evaluated for:

• Multi-ton industrial cargo
• Machinery and equipment
• Automotive parts and production materials
• Heavy individual pieces and oversized cargo
• Battery cargo
• Dangerous goods subject to approval
• Urgent project cargo and larger replenishment shipments

For larger shipments, New Vista can evaluate typical 3–7 tonne lots as well as 20T, 50T and larger movements, subject to available capacity and operational confirmation.

Heavy & Oversized Cargo

For heavy or oversized shipments, loading feasibility should be checked before cargo is delivered to the airport. As an operational reference, individual pieces of approximately up to 10 tonnes and dimensions around 600 × 240 × 244 cm may be evaluated, subject to aircraft configuration, loading conditions and final approval.

For an oversized cargo check, send: Commodity + Pieces + Gross Weight + Dimensions + Packing + Cargo Photos + Ready Date.

Battery & Dangerous Goods Cargo

The URC–OTP freighter can also be evaluated for battery and dangerous goods shipments, subject to classification, documentation and carrier acceptance. Depending on the cargo, we may request UN number, DG classification, MSDS/SDS, battery specifications, packing details, weight and dimensions.

Acceptance should be confirmed before cargo is delivered to the departure airport.

Your Supplier Does Not Need to Be in Urumqi

Cargo does not need to originate in Urumqi. Shipments from major manufacturing and trading regions in China can be routed to the departure gateway according to cargo location, shipment size, commodity and flight schedule.

Examples: Shenzhen · Guangzhou · Dongguan · Shanghai · Ningbo · Suzhou · Yiwu and other China origins

New Vista can coordinate China-side routing and export customs before the international air freight movement.
