Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about flying from Seattle to Budapest.

What is the typical flight duration from Seattle to Budapest?

Seattle to Budapest is about 5,490 miles. There is no scheduled nonstop service on this route, so the journey requires a connection.
Methodology
Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.

Are there any direct flights from Seattle to Budapest?

There are no non-stop flights from Seattle to Budapest. The shortest connecting routing is on Condor via Frankfurt, taking 13 hours total with a 10h 5m flight, a 1h 20m layover, and a 1h 35m final leg. Other one-stop options include Air France via Paris (13h 20m), British Airways via London (13h 25m), and Delta via Amsterdam (13h 30m).
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

What are the ground transportation options in Budapest?

Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport offers several solid ground transportation options to the city center, roughly 21 kilometers away. The 100E Airport Express bus is the most popular and fastest public option, running 24/7 every 5-10 minutes during the day directly to Deák Ferenc tér and other central metro stations for a premium fare of 2,500 HUF. The official taxi service Főtaxi provides a fixed rate around 11,000-16,000 HUF (€28-40), while ride-hailing apps Bolt and Uber (via Főtaxi partnership) offer transparent pricing. The cheapest route combines the 200E bus with the M3 metro, costing as little as 530 HUF, though it takes 50-60 minutes. Car rentals and private shuttle services like MiniBUD are also available, but the 100E express bus remains the clear favorite for most visitors.

Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from Seattle to Budapest?

Overnight red-eye options from Seattle to Budapest are available as connecting itineraries, since the long transatlantic leg departs in the evening and lands the next day. Delta's Seattle-to-Amsterdam leg departs at 5:45 PM and arrives at 12:30 PM the next day before connecting onward to Budapest, and Condor operates a Seattle-to-Frankfurt leg departing at 6:05 PM that arrives at 1:10 PM the next day, also connecting onward to Budapest.
Methodology
Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times and block times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes. A flight counts as a red-eye when it departs in the afternoon or evening (3 p.m. or later local time) or in the early hours before 4 a.m., and is in the air at some point between midnight and 4 a.m. local time at both its departure airport and its arrival airport. An evening flight that lands before midnight at its destination is never counted, nor is a morning departure or a daytime long-haul that reaches the next calendar date only because of time zones. Each red-eye is labelled with its timing (for example, overnight and landing the next morning, or late-night and landing after midnight). For connecting itineraries the same rule is applied to the longer leg, from one representative day's flight search.

Which airlines usually operate this route from Seattle to Budapest?

Seattle to Budapest has no nonstop service; the quickest connecting routing is via Frankfurt on Condor in about 13 hours, followed by Air France via Paris, British Airways via London, and Delta via Amsterdam. Turkish Airlines connects through Istanbul, and Lufthansa also links the two cities via Frankfurt with a longer layover. Condor, Air France, British Airways, Delta, Turkish Airlines, and Lufthansa are the airlines currently scheduled on one-stop routings from Seattle to Budapest.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a typical fare is shown for a carrier, it is the median of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

Which airport should I use in Budapest?

Budapest has one main airport, Ferenc Liszt International Airport, located about 16 km southeast of the city centre. It handles all scheduled flights and is well connected by public transport and taxi.

How do I get to Seattle-Tacoma Intl Airport from the city center?

From downtown Seattle, the Link light rail is the fastest and most popular way to reach Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, taking about 38 minutes and costing just $3. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft, along with metered taxis, pick up on level 3 of the parking garage and reach the airport in 20–30 minutes depending on traffic, though they cost significantly more. Shared shuttle services also run between downtown hotels and the airport. Driving yourself takes about 30 minutes via I-5, but airport parking is expensive, so the light rail is the best value for most travelers.

Budapest Airport has the ibis Styles Budapest Airport hotel directly on the airport grounds, just a short walk from Terminal 2. Tribe Budapest Airport is also nearby, connected to Terminal 2 by a covered walkway. For a slightly farther option, Airport Hotel Budapest is about 1.2 miles away and offers a complimentary airport shuttle.

What aircraft are typically used on flights from Seattle to Budapest?

There is no nonstop service from Seattle to Budapest; the route is connecting-only. On the long-haul leg, Delta flies the Airbus A330-900neo via Amsterdam, British Airways uses the Boeing 787-10 and Boeing 777-300ER via London Heathrow, Lufthansa operates the Airbus A340-300 via Frankfurt, Turkish Airlines flies the Airbus A350-900 via Istanbul, and Air France uses the Airbus A350-900 via Paris. Condor serves the route via Frankfurt.
Methodology
Aircraft types come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.

Which airline alliances serve flights from Seattle to Budapest?

There is no nonstop service from Seattle to Budapest; the route is flown via one-stop connections. The carriers currently scheduled on this route span all three major alliances — SkyTeam (Air France, Delta Air Lines, KLM), oneworld (British Airways), and Star Alliance (Lufthansa, Turkish Airlines) — while Condor, a major operating carrier, belongs to no alliance.
