Strikes may annul several Budapest flights this week

On 1 and 2 February, there will be a general strike affecting hundreds of Finnair flights all over the world. That may include even their Budapest-Helsinki route.

Budapest flights in trouble?

According to turizmus.com, Finnair will cancel almost 550 flights on 1 and 2 February due to the strike. As a result, they will only be able to operate a few flights. Therefore, lots of passengers rebooked their tickets last week.

The flight cancellations and the redirection of the passengers started yesterday morning, and it will take approximately two days due to the high number of passengers. The airline offered its passengers to reschedule their flights to dates before or after the strike but until 15 March at the latest.
