Flying from London Luton
Luton is Wizz Air and easyJet country, with secondary routes from Ryanair and TUI. The airport sits 32 miles north of central London with a direct Thameslink train via Luton Airport Parkway — there's now a DART shuttle bridging the station to the terminal. Fare structures lean budget; if you're after Eastern European, Greek island or Spanish-coast routes, Luton often beats the bigger London airports on price.
Arriving in Budapest
Budapest Ferenc Liszt is 16 km southeast of the city, with bus 100E running direct to Deák Ferenc tér in 35 minutes for 2200 HUF. Ryanair, Wizz and easyJet drive most UK traffic; BA adds Heathrow service. Budapest holds its value through winter (off-peak fares from £39 from London bases) — the spa-and-cafe city break is cheaper in November–February than at any other time.
