Budapest Airport: Standard winter operations at Ferihegy
01-Dec-2010 The heavy snowfall experienced during the last few days has caused significant disruptions at many European airports.
In western Europe and especially in England, most flights depart with significant delays and some have been canceled. Due to the delays and the mandatory de-icing procedure prior to takeoff, flights departing from Budapest are being delayed as well. Therefore it is worth checking the latest flight information on Budapest Airport's website before departing for the airport.
The operation of Ferihegy Airport has remained undisturbed by the snow and sleet. Budapest Airport's snow fleet has been working around the clock to clear the runways and taxiways. Airport weather forecasts indicate that the snowfall and sleet will continue with varying intensity, but more or less continuously. All of Budapest Airport's employees are working to ensure that delays to arriving and departing flights are minimized.
