Budapest Ferenc Liszt International (BUD) is Hungary’s main international gateway and typically serves a mix of full-service carriers, major European airlines, and an extensive roster of low-cost operators. Located about 16–20 km southeast of downtown, it can be reached by express bus or public buses plus metro in roughly 35–50 minutes, while taxis or rideshares typically take 30–40 minutes depending on traffic; fares are generally moderate compared with other European capitals. The airport usually offers a good range of lounges and dining options but can be busier and less tranquil during peak leisure periods. For tighter budgets, some travelers prefer off-peak flights with low-cost carriers; for convenience, airlines with direct links to the city centre are often favored.
Shymkent International Airport (CIT) serves as the main air gateway for southern Kazakhstan and typically acts as a regional hub rather than a major international transfer point. It usually hosts a mix of national carriers and a few low-cost or regional operators, so fares can be moderate compared with larger Kazakh hubs. The airport lies about 13–15 km northeast of Shymkent city centre; taxi rides normally take 20–30 minutes and single fares can range from roughly the equivalent of a few dollars up to a modest local flat rate, while airport shuttles and occasional bus services may be cheaper but slower. Pros: compact layout and relatively short wait times; cons: limited long-haul connections and fewer onboard amenities than larger international airports.
