Another direct flight to Greece from a Hungarian city in the countryside

In addition to Budapest Airport and Debrecen Airport, Pécs Airport is launching more and more international flights. Now, it has another good news for travellers, as it now also operates regular flights to Corfu, Greece.

Back in the spring, we reported that Universal Air’s first scheduled flight had arrived at Pécs-Pogány Airport from Malta, but the southwestern Hungarian city also operates a flight to Munich.

The latest announcement is that the first flights from Pécs-Pogány to Corfu will depart in early June. The flights will serve the route every Wednesday, with a flight time of 1 hour 50 minutes.

BAMA reports that several travel agencies in Baranya organise individual and group trips to Corfu, so the decision seems logical.

“We are also experiencing a great interest in both individual and group trips. Individual guests buy their flight tickets, accommodation and transfers with us. And for the group trip, they are accompanied by a guide. Despite the fact that 16-17 years ago, Corfu was accessible for two years from here, the number of bookings is surprisingly high. I should add that we were relatively late in learning about the possibility of flights, so it is not so easy to find accommodation, most of which is already booked. The agencies book accommodation for the summer season before the autumn. We have to look around, but so far we have found accommodation for everyone,’
