Tag: Ferenc Liszt International Airport-no-more

For expats stranded in Budapest or other people in the capital of Hungary it can be nice to know that two new destinations can now be reached from Budapest. Jet2 has recently started their direct flights from Budapest to Edinburgh and since April 26th American Airlines has started direct flights from Budapest to New York.

So, if this sounds interesting, just fly and check out these new destinations!

If you should arrive in Budapest from Edinburgh, New York or maybe another destionation, why not let us take care of your airport transfer?

It might be that Budapest Ferihegy Airport will be renamed in the near future. The government want to rename the airport to Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport. A decision needs to be made in the case within quite shortly, so it might be that you will land on Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport next time you come to Budapest.

We also read somewhere that Lágymányosi Bridge might be renamed to Szént László Bridge after a suggestion from the Mayor of Budapest.

Last week we reported that Hungarians could vote for a square to be named Elvis Presley Square in Budapest, and that poll will be closing up tomorrow. Unfortunately they have not let the inhabitants influence the upcoming name of the airport or the Lágymányosi Bridge, but it might be better that way. Still, we have some sort of sorrow in our hearts every time we travel to Szentendre. Just outside the border of Budapest we drive next to the Meggyeri Híd, though the name +Chuck Norris Bridge+ (which was a very popular candidate during the poll) would have been even cooler, at least for tourists!
