Launching its fifth direct connection to London, Budapest Airport has welcomed the inaugural flight of Flybe’s three times weekly service to London Southend on April 4. Expecting a 14% year-on-year increase in UK passenger traffic, the Hungarian gateway will serve up to 1.5 million round-trip passengers to and from the UK capital this year.
Celebrating the arrival of a new airline partner to Hungary’s capital city, Flybe’s link joins existing services with other carriers to London Gatwick, London Heathrow, London Luton and London Stansted – making the London market by far the largest city pair served from Budapest.
