Budapest Airport expects passenger traffic to increase this year

Budapest Ferihegy International Airport operator Budapest Airport (BA) expects passenger traffic at the airport to increase in 2010, reaching or even exceeding its 2008 figure of 8.4m, after falling to 8.1m in 2009, BA Communications Director Mihaly Hardy told MTI on Friday.

Mr Hardy remarked that Ferihegy Airport's passenger-traffic data was mixed in January, though certain airlines, such as Hungarian low-cost airline Wizz Air, Swissair and Norwegian Air recorded excellent turnover during the month.

The BA communications director said that the company expects passenger traffic begin to really begin to pick up with the onset of the summer tourist season.
