Which airline can fly direct from Moscow to Budapest?
The following airlines operate direct flights on the route Moscow — Budapest:
Moscow is served by several airports with different roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) is typically the main international hub, favored by full-service carriers and Star Alliance partners; it can feel more premium and often has a wide choice of long-haul flights. Domodedovo (DME) is usually a major international airport as well, with a mix of network and low-cost carriers and a perception of competitive fares. Vnukovo (VKO) often handles a mix of scheduled and charter services and can be convenient for west-side arrivals. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is smaller and can be used for budget or overflow flights on occasion.
Travel times to central Moscow vary: Aeroexpress trains connect SVO and DME to the city in roughly 35–45 minutes, while Vnukovo’s Aeroexpress is about 35–40 minutes; fares for the express trains are typically in the mid-range for rail services. Surface options include taxis and ride-hailing (25–60 minutes depending on traffic) and buses or local trains that can be slower but cheaper. Pros: good connectivity and frequent services; Cons: can be crowded, distances between airports and the city can make transfers time-consuming. Choose based on carrier, schedule, and which side of the city you’re staying.
Fly direct from Moscow to Budapest for the fastest, most convenient way to reach Hungary’s vibrant capital — fewer hassles, no layovers, and more time to enjoy thermal baths and historic streets. While connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, a nonstop trip saves hours and offers a more comfortable, stress-free journey so you arrive ready to explore.
Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD) is Hungary’s main international gateway and typically serves a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines, making it a hub for both connecting flights and budget travel. It sits about 16 km (10 miles) southeast of the city center; travel times are usually 30–45 minutes by car depending on traffic. Public options include the 100E airport express bus to central districts (roughly 35–50 minutes, paid service) and regular buses or suburban rail with slightly longer journeys; taxi rides can range significantly by provider. Pros: relatively compact terminals and frequent low-cost routes; cons: peak-hour congestion and occasional queues, plus a moderate onward transfer time to downtown.
