The bazaars of Marrakech, the Guggenheim Museum, Parisian romance, the famous Pink City are some of the new destinations offered by Budapest Airport’s winter schedule with nine new flights.
As statement by the company, which is the operator of Budapest’s Ferenc Liszt International Airport, and is part of VINCI Airports, points out for the lovers of sunny cities with mild winter weather that there are two new Spanish destinations to choose from: Gran Canaria, the third largest and perhaps most popular of the Canary Islands, and Bilbao, a unique blend of modernity and history, will be just a flight away from the Hungarian capital in the winter schedule. While Wizz Air offers direct flights to Gran Canaria, Vueling provides direct flights to Bilbao in December.
The range of airlines flying to Paris will be expanded; the 21 flights per week from Air France will be joined by easyJet, with 4 flights per week. Ryanair will open a route to another popular French city, Toulouse; while Paris is a classic favorite, Toulouse is a refreshing new addition to the destination map. The city, located on the banks of the Garonne River, boasts pink houses, one of Europe’s largest Romanesque churches and, for aviation enthusiasts, an Airbus visiting tour. Thanks to the two new flights, the Hungarian capital has seen the biggest increase in connections to France in Europe, up 38%.
There is also a significant increase to Italy, with an even wider offer to 13 Italian cities this winter season, more than to the UK, which has been the top performer so far. The existing flights to Rome, Milan, Naples, Bari, Pisa, Catania, Bologna, Palermo, Venice, Cagliari and Trieste will be joined by two coastal destinations, Genoa and Salerno, courtesy of Wizz Air.
For those looking to explore destinations beyond Europe, Wizz Air’s Marrakech flight is one of the best choices. Nestled at the foot of the Atlas Mountains, this Moroccan city not only offers warmer weather than Hungary, but also bazaars with a distinctive atmosphere and beautiful mosques. The city’s most famous landmarks include the ornate Bahia Palace and Jemaa el-Fnaa, Marrakech’s main square, where you can step right into the heart of local culture.
Wizz Air will also launch a new flight to Memmingen in Germany, a perfect choice for those who prefer a less touristy, but colorful and charming city, while Ryanair will fly to Warsaw, for those who want to add rich historic walks to their sightseeing.
Of the long-haul flights operated in the summer season, Shanghai Airlines’ Shanghai service will continue to operate daily in the winter season, while Air China will fly to Beijing four times a week from the end of October, offering 25,000 more seats than in the winter of 2023.
“This winter season, there will be even more seats available than last year, and passengers have nine new flights to choose from, offering a choice of destinations for both short city breaks and longer adventures,” said Francois Berisot, the CEO of Budapest Airport. He added: “Budapest’s popularity is growing steadily and spectacularly; we expect many tourists to arrive in Hungary during the winter season. As the operator of Budapest Airport, it is our task to create the conditions for this growth, contributing to the further strengthening of the importance of tourism for the national economy.”
