Pretty good airport, lots of facilities, shops and restaurants, little hard to get to as the bus requires a separate ticket from the city transport, but it functions well...

Well in this instance I was arriving to Budapest Airport, and while it was a bit crowded after my immediate arrival that was understandable, as to be honest many flight to or from the UK have been delayed today, and even if they could, they haven't been able to help the sheer amount

No direct train or metro connection to the operating terminal (T2), only bus 100E and 200E (public transport) + shuttle + taxi. So if there is accident on the only road that goes to the airport, you probably miss your flight.

Airport itself is fine. Security check was fast and without any problems. Getting to airport is bad. You have to go by train and bus which can be delayed or metro and buses. It can cause you many problems.

The immigration staff was really unfriendly, and he was rude with the foreigners specially. Bad thing to see that these type of staff is the first point of contact for the foreigners arriving in our contry.

There are many ways getting to the airport. I prefer the alternative unofficial taxis for their competitive price and speed. I still miss the direct train connection. I always use the Mastercard Lounge which is quite poor in the quality of services. (coffee machine was broken this m

Really not a good airport for spending time in. There has been improvements from the past because of Terminal A, and flights within Europe leave from there. Although all flights end up at terminal A before going to B. There is not so much to do, the BA lounge is okay but great views

The airport terminal can not cope with the volume of traffic. The facilities for low cost airlines are very poor - it would be something I could tolerate if I knew there were plans for upgrade but no signs of that.
Either open Termonal 1 again (beautiful old Art Deco building) or

The airport has aged quickly. It's still nice but very aged. For low cost flights it is a long walk to the plane but bear in mind it can get VERY cold in Hungary!

Very poor restroom experience. Half of the toilets were unusable due to missing and/or not working toilet-paper holders. Toilet seats are loosely fixed.

Security was fast and professional.

Good selection of food bars, but they are extremely overpriced.

This wonderful airport is still mainly for ripping off tourists. Starting from money exchange booth, with incredible, 20-40% difference between currency buy and sale rates to food areas where a bottle of water will cost you 2 euro (same as in Venice center). Duty free is only 30-100

- Getting by M3 line + bus as usual is not possible due to renovation works. The ticket price for the express bus rose to 900 Ft.
- Worst ever gate I had, owing to Wizzair. Went downstairs, then outside in the cold, then in some empty hangar, then outside again. Waiting and check

M3 metro is not running on the weekend due to repairs. 100E is also not the best. Horrible security check, queues for check in and security check mixed, people unsure where to queue, no effort to manage the crowds. Burger King, the most popular eatery is understaffed, 1 counter open

Arriving was fine, but I can?t understand why they call the shuttlebuss for 100E, instead of something relatable to an airport. And why is this 3 times as expensive as any other bus ride in the city?, but the service is much poorer. Overcrowded, very hot and and uncomfortable. When
