Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD) to Budapest Center
Compare the listed airport journeys and check where each service stops. Allow time for any onward connection.
100E runs around the clock between the airport and central Budapest. A standard airport ticket costs 2,500 HUF; allow about 40 minutes plus waiting and traffic. Ordinary 24-hour and 72-hour travelcards do not cover it or qualify for the reduced add-on. That add-on requires an eligible longer-term pass.
Take 200E to Kőbánya-Kispest, then metro M3 towards the centre while the metro operates. A 90-minute mobile ticket costs 850 HUF; two ordinary single tickets cost 1,000 HUF. Follow the validation rules at each boarding. A valid city travelcard also covers this route. At night, use the scheduled night-bus connection instead of expecting M3 to run all night.
Use the official Főtaxi airport desk and check the current regulated meter tariff. Your address, distance and time in traffic determine the vehicle total. Ask for an estimate before departure and keep the receipt; a euro conversion is not a fixed fare.
