While there are no sightseeing opportunities from this station, you can travel between
the airport and downtown Budapest using the 200 Bus (previously known as the Reptér-Busz) to/from Kóbánya-Kispest.
Serving both Ferihegy 1 and 2, a pre-purchased 270 HUF ticket is needed
for the journey (which takes twenty-three minutes) with buses running at regular 10-20
minute intervals. Note, however, the green BKV ticket machines - located near to
the taxi ranks outside Arrivals - accept only HUF coins, so make sure you obtain
suitable change in advance. Once you arrive at Kóbánya-Kispest, it's then a further 20 minute journey to the city
centre on the blue M3 metro line, for which an additional 270 HUF ticket
(covering a single journey without changing to the M1 or M2 lines) is required.
Moreover, although it's our favoured way of getting to/from Budapest
Airport, be aware that Kóbánya-Kispest station will come as a
culture shock to newly arrived visitors (being busy and rather grubby). However,
as there's always a visible police presence here, you're unlikely to encounter
problems, especially as scores of local commuters use the station during
daylight hours. Be sure though to follow our tips on avoiding crime
in Budapest at all times.
