Budapest Airport, part of the Vinci Airports network, with the support of Visit Hungary, has announced the launch of the first direct connection between Kuwait and Hungary, marking an important milestone in the airport’s history.
Operated by Jazeera Airways, the new route between Budapest and Kuwait City will connect the two cities twice weekly, from June 5 to September 25, 2025.
Utilising the airline’s modern Airbus A320, with 174 seats, the new service establishes Kuwait City as Budapest Airport’s seventh Middle Eastern destination, alongside Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Israel, Jordan, Qatar and Saudi Arabia. This marks the debut operation of Jazeera Airways at Budapest Airport, further broadening the connectivity offered to passengers. The route is expected to facilitate travel not only from Kuwait, but from India, enhancing Budapest’s position as a gateway to the Middle East and beyond.—Zawya
