Unable to find information about the schedule of direct flights from
Zagreb Franjo Tuđman Airport (ZAG) serves as Croatia’s main international gateway and typically combines full-service network flights with a growing number of low-cost carriers, so fares can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on season and carrier. The airport lies about 17 km (roughly 20–30 minutes) southeast of the city center by car, and is usually reachable by taxi or rideshare (20–40 EUR typical), airport shuttle buses that take around 30–40 minutes for a few euros, or regional trains and buses on certain services. Pros: compact terminal, straightforward security and relatively short transfer times; cons: can be busy in peak summer months and fewer late-night public transport options compared with larger European hubs.
Budapest Ferenc Liszt International (BUD) is Hungary’s main international gateway and typically handles a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines, so fares can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on season and carrier. The airport sits about 16–20 km southeast of the city center; taxis and app-based rides usually take 25–35 minutes while a direct bus or combined metro/bus trip can take around 35–50 minutes, with public fares generally low compared with taxi rates. Facilities are modern enough for short transfers, though peak times can be busy and some budget-conscious travelers may prefer offsite car-park shuttles or prebooked transfers for added convenience.
