Budapest Ferenc Liszt International (BUD) is Hungary’s main international gateway and typically handles a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines, making it the primary choice for international travel. The airport sits about 16 km southeast of the city center; journey times are usually 30–45 minutes by taxi or car depending on traffic, and roughly 35–50 minutes on public transport combining the 100E airport bus or suburban bus plus metro, with fares generally being modest. Trains are limited directly from the terminal but nearby rail connections exist via bus links. Pros: relatively compact terminals and a wide range of route options; cons: peak-hour congestion and variable queue times can affect comfort. For budget travelers, low-cost carriers often offer lower fares but may use secondary terminals or charge extra for add-ons.
Kraków’s main gateway is John Paul II Kraków–Balice Airport (KRK), a medium-sized international hub that serves a mix of full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines, so fares can be relatively budget-friendly compared with larger Western European airports.
