After more than a decade since it met all the technical conditions, Romania entered the Schengen area with air and sea borders. From midnight, air travel between member states of the free movement area is faster, without document control. So does air or sea freight. This means about a third of the total goods transiting Romania. The first fully operated flight without border control from the Schengen area was from Vienna, something “slightly ironic”, said the spokesperson of the National Airport Company, Valentin Iordache.
