Getting from Budapest city center to Budapest airport

Budapest is served by one international airport: Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD), located approximately 16 km southeast of the city center. Travelers heading to the airport from Budapest can choose from several transport options including the dedicated 100E airport express bus, a combination of metro and local bus, taxi, ride-hailing, and private transfer services. Journey times and costs vary depending on the mode of transport, time of day, and traffic conditions. This guide covers the main options for reaching BUD from central Budapest.

Notes:

  • Prices in HUF; table created in 2026 and subject to change.
  • The 100E airport express bus requires a dedicated airport bus ticket (1200 HUF) and does not accept standard BKK single tickets or passes.
  • The Metro M3 plus Bus 200E combination uses a standard BKK single ticket or travel pass and is the most affordable option.
  • Taxi fares in Budapest are metered; only use officially licensed taxis displaying the yellow taxi sign. Ride-hailing prices vary with demand.
  • Road traffic can significantly affect journey times, particularly during morning and evening peak hours.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
