    Unfortunately, there are currently no direct flights from the UK to Debrecen, Hungary. However, you can find plenty of great deals through KAYAK for direct flights to Budapest from London and Manchester. You can then easily grab a train from Budapest to Debrecen.

  • What documentation do I need to travel to Hungary?

    As a UK citizen visiting Hungary, you must carry a passport that has at least three months until its expiry date from when you intend to depart Hungary. As you will be travelling to an EU country, you will be approved for a 90-day stay without a visa.

  • What are the stopover options between London and Hungary?

    If you’re flying to Budapest with Ryanair, you can stop off in Milan Bergamo Airport (BGY) or Kastrup Copenhagen Airport (CPH) when flying from London Stansted. For Debrecen Airport arrivals, you can fly with Lufthansa from Heathrow Airport (LHR) via Munich Franz Josef Strauss Airport (MUC).

  • What’s a good way to get to Bratislava from Budapest Airport?

    There are a few options to get to Bratislava from Budapest Ferenc Liszt Airport, but a simple way is by bus or train. If you’re travelling on a budget, then the bus is cheaper and takes around 3h 30min, while the train takes up to 4h. Of course, you can also take a flight, but this is the more expensive option.

  • Which Hungarian airport is best for northern areas?

    Budapest-Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD) is relatively northern-based, but if you would like to be even more north, consider Košice International Airport (KSC) in Slovakia.

  • Will British citizens need a visa to fly into Hungary?

  • Which airline is best for flying with babies to Hungary?

    Most airlines will charge you 10% of an adult fee if a child under 2 years old can sit on your lap. Wizz Air, however, allows children to fly for free when on your lap. They also offer a direct flight and the highest frequency of flights per week to Hungary.

  • How do I secure special assistance at Budapest-Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD)?

    If in need of special assistance of any kind, book with your airline 48 hours ahead of time to ensure that the crew and airport work together to be ready to assist you upon arrival. From mobility to sight or hearing assistance, or unseen disabilities, this world-class airport has the staff to assist you every step of the way.

  • Can I sleep in the airport if I have a layover at Budapest International Airport (BUD)?

You can grab direct flights with Ryanair from London Stansted Airport (STN) to Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD) that emit 63% less CO2 than your average flight, reducing it by about 441 kg per person.
  • If you’re travelling on a budget, then check out flights with Ryanair flying out of London Stansted Airport to Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport, while Wizz Air UK also operates cheap flights out of London Luton Airport (LTN) to Budapest. If you’re flying from Manchester Airport (MAN), Ryanair also runs cheap flights, while from Glasgow Airport (GLA), you can fly with Ryanair via Dublin Airport (DUB).
  • A convenient way to get to Budapest city centre from Ferenc Liszt Airport is an airport taxi, but naturally, it’s more expensive than other options. We recommend taking the 100E Bus from outside the terminal, which doesn’t take much longer than the taxi and can drop you off in the city centre within 35-45min, at a cost of about Ft900 (£2.10).
  • Should you want to reach other parts of Hungary with little fuss, such as Debrecen, you can fly from London Luton Airport or Glasgow Airport on flights with two stopovers, operated by Wizz Air UK and Ryanair.

As well as a wide variety of flight options, here you can find useful services which may be beneficial to your trip, including various places to eat, a large selection of shops and other facilities such as a currency-exchange office and car hire desks.
  • Many visitors to Hungary want to tick the infamous Buda Castle off their bucket list. If you fly via the Budapest-FerencLiszt International Airport (BUD), you’ll be placed just 19 miles (30 km) away. There’s a bus that departs from Budapest Airport Train Station every 15 minutes that goes directly to the landmark, and surrounding hotels.
  • If you are Muslim or practise an alternative faith to Christian, you will possibly require a religious-based meal on your flight to Hungary. While most commercial airlines stock good choices of alternative meals, the smaller, economy airlines do not. On the journey to Hungary you can find Jain, Halal, Muslim and Kosher meals with British Airways, but they must be ordered 24 hours in advance.
  • If you are travelling with children to Hungary and plan on renting a car at the airport, your car hire company will be obligated to ensure you have a car seat for the child. It is law in Hungary for children under 150 cm to be seated in the appropriate-sized seat and all car hire companies do stock them, so you do not have to take one on the plane with you during your trip.

Flights were on time, boarding was straight forward. Very good attentive staf

Delays on both journeys - only found out before geting to the airport as had created trip within Kayak.

Late again to leave and late to arrive. Seats are too hard.

Despite delay due to weather ,flight was a pleasure and in particular the staff who worked their tails off because of the delay

Jet2 fab as always. Despite the shambolic airport process to get us to the plane (nothing to do with Jet2) and the time that set us back, all the crew were superb in getting us on our way once boarded.

Everything from check in to the flight was great. Helpful staff. Immaculate planes. There is nothing I would change

Staff were excellent but space wasn’t the best, seats were cramped and windows had no blinds.

There is nothing I can think.of that jet2 need to improve They offer a great package. Very efficient

They are organised and customer service is so good from arriving at the airport until finally landing at your destination. The experience is a million times better than travel with Ryanair.

All was good but they should bring back seat pockets. It’s difficult trying to travel with small children and keep having to get stuff out of flight bag and then have nowhere to put it!

The food & entertainment really stood out in terms of quality. The nasi goreng & chicken satay were absolutely delicious. It’s great that KLM feature international cuisine.

Transavia flight, was booked as KLM but i couldnt select seat or access boarding pass with KLM at all. Crammed seating and very no frills experience all around. First and last time.

Transavia flight. Couldn't select seat or anything prior to flight. No connection with klm systems. Seats are very crammed. Extremely no frills.

Seats were nice and comfy. Crew was polite and attentive. Business class is awesome and worth the money.

Flight left a few minutes late, but that's it. I wish the seats could be wider and recline more.

It’s chaotic at the bus stop outside of the airport because of the Uber meeting point. You need to be alert and look for the KLM bus which is not branded or labeled. Incorrect information was provided to go to gate 28, when in fact the bus was at gate 27. On the plus side the bus left early and arrived early to Ottawa.

Great flight because I upgraded to Premium Comfort. Made a huge difference in the experience.

The flight was great, the only reason for middle scores on entertainment and food is that it was a short flight so not included (but snacks were served including alcoholic beverages free of charge). I would definitely recommend KLM.

Was trying to change a flight but told that Canadian and local klm systems do not interact so they could not access my booking. Overall I like klm a lot but if it was important to change flights I would be very frustrated.

Flight was delayed. Can happen. But the info on the website and app said that flight was cancelled which was not the case.

This airline is routinely voted the worse airline in Europe for good reason. If you have an option, just avoid them.

Everything was great until it came time to pick up our luggage. We arrived in orly airport terminal 1, our luggage arrived in terminal 2. No signs to tell us, we waited for almost an hour before someone figured it out.

All in all is not bad, but the boarding by walking outside in the airport airplanes area in the wind and rain to go up the stairs to board the plane that’s too much inconvenient. Hopefully that will change and we use the normal gates at the airport to board the plane! Thank you!

The plane was 5 1/2 hours late. Scheduled for 19.50 take off - Actual take off 01.30am

The flight was delayed again. I had a bad experience with Wizz Air, and I don't want to travel with them again.

Wizz is the worst airline in the world, The firm behavior is similar to the Italian mafia, For booking, check in at the desk and not on line that charge 48euro each, the truly that was included in the confirmation is only half way the continuous flight after the connection is not included although ordered together as on flight with one stop,(no direct flight), they asked for another 58euro each, unbelievable behavior of the staff, actually you feel threatened by them, as I said Italian mafia. Last time ever in my life. Keep out of this airline and enjoy your vacation.

Pierwszy raz odbyłam tak pozytywny lot. Uprzejma, świetna załoga. Kapitana lotu W6 1771 z 6.01.2024, pozytywnie zaskoczył wyraźnym kontaktem i ciekawostkami na temat lotu, jak i informacja o zorzy polarnej zachęcając do zobaczenia przez okana. Delikatne perfekcyjne ladowanie WIELKI SZACUN i GRATULACJE dla KAPITANA!!👏👏👏

After the flight. Waiting to long to get off the plane

Very very very…… uncomfortable seats /does nor reclain/ and so little space /this was 5:30 hours flight- and quite expensive no longer low cost airline/ 5:30 hours flight and no water or snacks was offered anly very expensive sales.

Was denied to enter the previous plane so couldnt make it to this one

Miserable staff did not want to be there. Very poor atmosphere boarding. Then just basic flight.

We were diverted to warsaw and there was zero information. We were just forced to disembark and off we go good luck the reat of the way. We all had to go our ways to find a way home!!!! Horrible horrible and it cost us alot of money to get a hotel and trains 4:30 pm next day.

Long delay was made worse by lack of information and long time in queue waiting for the plane to arrive

Blood contaminated tissue was stuffed to the back of the seat in front of us.

Great flight, departed only 10 mins behind schedule off the aircraft and through security in less than 15 minutes. Love flying from Cardiff so easy a quick from entrance to duty free in less than 10 minutes 😀

My flight was delayed 1 hour. My Mood was not great

Lord knows why they had us start boarding when the plane wasn't even there, staff weren't welcoming and the couple next to me travelling with a young child had a nightmare with the baby changing facilities.

This time round it was very good, flight delayed by 30mins but capitan put his toe to the floor and made some time up!!

Great flight and crew but let down yet again by the disaster that is Birmingham Airport

Boarding at Birmingham was appalling, made to stand in a corridor which claims to be a gate for an hour, despite knowing full well the flight was delayed….. the crew were fantastic and you have to feel sorry for them dealing with the delay caused three fold, inbound delay, damage to front baggage hold door and finally a further ATC delay. On board experience was good and crew friendly and helpful.

I flew Club World and was SHOCKED at how totally absent the crew were for the duration of the flight. So much so that we received no drink service other than the post-departure cocktail and that was it. Wasn't even offered tea/coffee and the in-flight attention was so bad that literally minutes before landing the one crew member for our row was scrambling to pick up left-behind water bottles, glassware, trash. And the rest of the crew had already stowed all carts, he was cramming the trash into the lavatory trash can and was stashing the glassware frantically in the galley as we were on final approach. He was so scrambled he left two overhead lockers wide open (that he'd opened) for landing. Unbelievable!

Paid for first class and was surprised that the seats were the same in economy except no one was in the middle seat. I expected an actual first class seat.

The flight was several times changed. That was inconvenient, to sah the least.

They lost my special meal request and tried to tell me I didn't request it. I had the proof. Then they tried to get me to eat food I can't eat. No apologies

British airways keeps canceling our flights. I won’t be booking any future flights with them

I could not charge my phone the entire night or read my book, as the whole middle isle was without power.

British Airways did a great job and the entire crew was punctual and polite; dignified and delightful!

Flight was fine, food better than anticipated and flight attendants were helpful and friendly.

Flight was fine, food much better than anticipated, and flight attendants were helpful and friendly!

Our headphone plug is broken, we can not enjoy our entertainment, especially traveling with 5 year old who like to watch movie
