Following a record-breaking year in passenger traffic and an impressive start to 2025, Budapest International Airport Ferenc Liszt continues to break records even in the typically slower month of February.
As noted, Budapest Airport was recently selected as the best airport in Europe in the category of airports handling 15-25 million passengers annually, marking the second time in two years.
The recognition, awarded by the International Airports Council (ACI), is considered one of the most prestigious awards in the aviation industry, based on direct passenger feedback.
In February alone, 1,249,814 passengers passed through the airport – a 15.9% increase compared to February of last year, which saw a previous record of 1,075,552 passengers. For January-February 2025, this represents an overall increase of 16.7% compared to the same period in 2024.
