Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 20, 2025
Taxis

The official taxi partner is Főtaxi. Booths are located directly outside the exits of Terminals 2A and 2B. Approach the booth, state your destination, and you will be assigned to a car. This system ensures regulated fares and prevents overcharging. Payment by cash (HUF) or credit card is accepted in all cars.

Rental Cars

Several major international car rental companies have service counters in the arrivals hall of Terminal 2B and the SkyCourt area. Providers include Sixt, Avis, Hertz, Europcar, and Budget. It is recommended to book your vehicle in advance for better rates and availability. The car pickup area is a short walk from the terminal building.

Public Transportation

There are two primary bus routes to the city center. The 100E Airport Express is a direct shuttle bus to Deák Ferenc tér (a central hub), running 24/7 and requiring a specific 'airport shuttle bus single ticket'. The 200E bus is a regular public transport service that connects the airport to the Kőbánya-Kispest M3 metro station, where standard public transport tickets and passes are valid. From the metro station, you can easily reach the rest of the city.

Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport Posted by Silvanus_Tauris on November 5, 2022

Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport is the international airport serving the Hungarian capital city of Budapest. It is by far the largest of the country's four commercial airports, ahead of Debrecen and Hévíz–Balaton. The airport is located 16 kilometres southeast of the center of Budapest and was renamed in 2011 in honour of the most famous Hungarian composer Franz Liszt on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of his birth.

It offers international connections primarily within Europe, but also to Africa, to the Middle East, to North America and to the Far East. In 2019, the airport handled 16.2 million passengers. The airport is the headquarters and primary hub for Wizz Air and base for Ryanair. In 2012 it experienced a significant drop in aircraft movements and handled cargo, primarily due to the collapse of Malév Hungarian Airlines earlier in the year, hence losing a large portion of connecting passengers. It had been the hub for Malév until the airline's bankruptcy on 3 February 2012.

In 2015 North-American and Middle-Eastern carriers announced direct flights to Budapest. In 2018 LOT Polish Airlines made Budapest their first hub outside Poland, launching with year-round flights to New York-JFK and Chicago-ORD. In 2018, American Airlines resumed flights to Budapest. American Airlines this time flew from Philadelphia, after flights from New York-JFK were suspended in 2011. PHL-BUD operated for the two summers of 2018 and 2019, May–October, and was planned to continue the following summers as well. Chicago-ORD flights were planned to start in 2020, but were axed in April 2020, just a month before the inaugural flight. LOT Polish Airlines axed their Chicago-ORD flight in August 2019, just days after American Airlines announced plans to operate the same route starting May 2020. Nowadays, the Budapest hub of Wizz Air is the largest of all with more than 60 destinations.
