Lyon-Saint Exupéry (LYS) is the city’s main international airport and typically serves as the regional hub for full-service carriers alongside several low-cost airlines on short- and medium-haul routes. It sits about 20–25 km east of Lyon’s city center, with travel times roughly 30–45 minutes by Rhônexpress tram (single fares usually fall in the low single-digit euros) or 30–50 minutes by taxi/private transfer (fares can be noticeably higher). There are also longer bus and regional train options to nearby towns. The airport can be convenient for connections and offers a range of services, though it may feel less central than smaller domestic fields and can be busier during peak periods.
Budapest Ferenc Liszt International (BUD) is Hungary’s primary international gateway and usually handles both full-service and low-cost carriers, so you can expect a mix of legacy airlines and budget operators. The airport sits about 16–20 km southeast of the city center; taxis typically take 30–40 minutes depending on traffic, while the 100E airport bus connects directly to central stops in around 35–45 minutes for a modest fare, and suburban bus/train combos can be slightly cheaper. As an international hub it tends to offer a broad range of services and dining options, though peak times can mean longer queues and occasional delays; smaller commuter airports are not typical alternatives for most travelers.
