Every effort is being made to ensure the safety of passengers and employees at the airport, the statement said, with social distancing helped by floor stickers and information boards, as well as marked seats.

Also, hand sanitisers are refilled regularly and disinfectant cleaning is taking place more frequently.

Budapest Airport is asking passengers to use the self-service baggage check-in system and online check-in.

Last week, Wizz Air and KLM said some flights would resume from early May.
