Going home for Christmas? Budapest to increase airport shuttle bus frequency

Budapest’s public transport operator, BKK, will increase the frequency of its airport shuttle services during the holiday season to accommodate higher passenger demand. The enhanced schedule will be in effect from 16 December to 5 January.

To manage the anticipated surge in passenger traffic during the year-end holidays, BKK will run the 100E Airport Express more frequently, the company announced on Thursday. From 16 December to 5 January, buses will depart every 7–8 minutes on weekdays and Saturdays during morning and afternoon peak times. On busier travel days—Mondays, Fridays, and Sundays—buses will operate every 6–7 minutes between the city centre and Budapest’s Liszt Ferenc International Airport.

Additionally, starting 1 December, the 200E bus connecting Kőbánya-Kispest and the airport will run every 10 minutes on Sundays and holidays during early morning hours, replacing the current 10–20-minute intervals.

As a premium public bus service, the 100E Airport Express always provides a predictable, reliable and fast direct connection between Liszt Ferenc Airport and Budapest city centre, which makes it a perfect choice for travellers who wish to get to Budapest Airport easily.
