Budapest transport centre extends free travel for Ukrainian refugees

Budapest transport centre BKK has extended the option of free use of the city’s public transport services for Ukraine refugees until Sept 30.

BKK said in a statement that the eligibility condition is the presentation of a Ukrainian travel document suitable for personal identification.

BKK said that after April 1, the free travel option will no longer apply to suburban buses and railway HEVs, the airport express 100E bus service, the Buda Castle funicular, “nostalgia services,” and boats.
