Hungary Faces Chaos and Flight Delays at Its Airports

Hungry has also been highly affected by the spread of the virus as well as its new variants, AtoZSerwisPlus.com reports.

In this regard, Hungarian airline Wizz Air, following the example of other countries, removed the seats from their plans in order to attach cargo to them using a special process.

Wizz Air operated several similar flights between its capital and Chinese destinations following the order of the Hungarian states, transporting medical equipment to Hungary.

According to a report provided by Daily News Hungary, the Budapest airport saw 10-15 flight cancellations per week for operational reasons, which is a low indicator compared to the total number of flights.

Besides, departing flights were also punctual during this summer season. Based on a report provided by the operator, while in July, a total of 68 per cent of the planes took off on time, the same indicator was 69 per cent in July. Besides, the delay did not exceed 35 minutes on average for other flights either.

Recently, a report provided by online travel agency Hopper Inc collected the ten worst airports in Europe, while the Hungarian airport was ranked in the sixth position in this list.

The Brussels Airport was ranked in the first position in terms of Europe’s ten worst airports, followed by Frankfurt International Airport, Eindhoven airport, Luton airport as well as Lisbon airport.

Previously, Wizz Air announced that it would start a route back to Russia, while a large number of countries, especially the EU countries, are imposing harsh sanctions on Russia following the invasion of Ukraine. The announcement sparked controversies; however, the airline stressed that such a decision came following increased passenger demand.

But in this regard, the airline announced that it decided to further postpone its intentions to resume operating flights from Abu Dhabi to Moscow, which were set to start in October.

However, the airline stressed that the resumption of flights had been postponed stressing “industry supply-chain difficulties” as the main reason for such a decision.

Earlier this month, the airline announced it would offer about 100,000 free tickets to Ukrainians flying all over European countries.
