Budapest’s public transport services during the holidays, at the end of 2016 and in the first days of 2017

As in previous years, BKK Centre for Budapest Transport provides continuous public transport services during the holidays.

BKK asks you to plan your journey before using public transport services on Christmas Eve with the FUTÁR application (by the timetable search on BKK’s website or via the public transport mobile app) or by the currently applicable schedule.

During public holidays, the weekend schedule/the public holiday timetable applies in public transport services, while between Christmas time and New Year’s Eve, the year-end schedule applies. On New Year’s Eve, substantially more frequent services and buses with higher capacity will ensure that everyone will be able to reach their destination in Budapest.

Parking will be free-of-charge in the public car parks in Budapest from 20:00 on 23 December 2016 to 8:00 on 2 January 2017.
