Here are some EUR 10-15 flights from Budapest you should grab

Even though it’s August, there has never been a better time to snap up some affordable plane tickets for autumn. Prices for autumn flights have started to fall sharply on both ultra low-cost airlines: Hungarian low-cost carrier Wizz Air and Ireland-based Ryanair. Offers from Budapest are available again for as little as EUR 10. You might even have some of your favourite destinations among these cheap routes!

Okosutas made us all a favour and gathered some extremely cheap flight tickets, both at Wizz Air and Ryanair. These flights all take off in the autumn, but it’s always best to plan ahead – especially in the case of flights. These penny fares are particularly in stark contrast to the very high summer prices, but who are we to complain?

Ryanair’s latest autumn-winter forecast saw the company’s share price plummet nearly 10 percent. What does this mean for us, passengers? Cheaper travel, thankfully. Obviously, this is not the case with every single autumn flight.

Wizz Air is increasingly selling tickets for under HUF 10,000 (EUR 25.66), and there are plenty of tickets in the HUF 7-8,000 (EUR 18-20) category. Even to the far-away Lisbon, you can find tickets for great prices. There are also tickets for HUF 3960 (EUR 10.15) to Milan, London and Rome, for example, for midweek dates in October and November. (Please note that these prices are the Wizz Discount Club prices!). There are no EUR 10 tickets to Paris, however, there are some for EUR 15-25, mainly for November, plus some for October.

Prices are likely to fall further in the coming weeks for the autumn season. Don’t worry, if you can’t book now for some reason, there will be special offers for new dates later. In addition, the first half of December could soon start to see more serious price reductions as well, Okosutas notes.

However, watch out if you have seats booked on Wizz Air flight for September and October: as we reported HERE, the airline is forced to cancel several of its flights due to a compulsory engine checkup. Unfortunately, this is not the only hardship the Hungarian low-cost carrier is facing: as we wrote HERE, Romanian state secretary turned to the European Union’s Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) after Wizz Air cancelled a record-high number of flights last weekend.
