How to Get to the Budapest Airport
If your chosen luggage storage service doesn't offer a direct airport transfer, there are other options. Budapest has efficient and convenient public transport options to get you there and back.
Taxi
- Taxi apps are available.
- Prices range from 25€ to 35€.
The most direct option is to take a taxi. A taxi journey from Gellért Hill to the airport takes approximately 45 minutes and costs between 25€ and 35€.
As in any big city, it's important to use vigilance. Make sure only to use trusted taxi companies. We'd suggest using an app such as Bolt or Főtaxi.
MiniBUD Airport Shuttle
- Book ahead and get an assigned pickup time.
- Prices start at 6€
MiniBUD Airport Shuttle is a door-to-door transfer shared with other travelers, is cheaper than a taxi, and involves less lugging of your luggage.
However, there's a bit less flexibility with this option. You’ll need to tell them your departure time, and they will then assign you a pickup time.
Trip prices can start as low as 6€. Book in advance on their website to avoid long lines at the airport.
Airport Bus
- Runs 24 hours a day.
- Arrives in intervals of 7 to 10 minutes during the day.
- Arrives every 30 minutes between 00:00-3:00.
- The airport shuttle tickets cost around 4€.
By far the cheapest option, the 10 E Airport Bus conveniently leaves from the city center at Deák Ferenc Tér. It also stops at two other stations on its way out of the city, but we'd suggest getting on at Deák, as the bus won't stop at the other stations if it's already full (common during flight rush hour).
The ride takes approximately 45 minutes but allow for traffic delays during rush hour.

Luggage shouldn't weigh down that time between check-out and airport check-in! Drop off your bags at one of these Budapest luggage storage options, and be free to explore the city and beyond!
