Mészáros buys new private jet

Forbes pointed out that a recent report from Átlátszó revealed that a Bombardier Challenger 3500 private jet with Austrian registration OE-HOZ, linked to Hungarian billionaire Lőrinc Mészáros, arrived in Budapest from Vienna in July. The jet, operated by the same Austrian company that manages another plane used by the Mészáros circle, landed in Hungary around the same time as a helicopter used by the businessman’s family, suggesting coordination between the two aircraft. The helicopter likely transported the pilot of the private jet from Vienna to Hungary.

This jet, part of the businessman’s ever-expanding fleet, seems to mark an upgrade following last year’s controversy surrounding his luxury yacht. After landing in Hungary, the private jet flew to the South of France and then to Palma de Mallorca, where his luxury yacht, the Rose d’Or, was also anchored, according to maritime tracking data. This further reinforces the connection between the mysterious jet and the business circle of Hungary’s richest man. According to Átlátszó, the private jet cost around HUF 9.6 billion (around EUR 24 million).
