Terminals

Ferihegy airport has three terminals (1, 2A, 2B). A new large air cargo base is about to be built. Transfer between terminals 2A and 2B is convenient enough to be completed on foot. However, the older Terminal 1 is farther away and must be reached via bus.

Terminal 1

Terminal 1 primarily serves cargo, private, and charter flights. However, before 1985 it was the sole terminal at Ferihegy.

Terminal 2A

Terminal 2A was originally built exclusively for MALÉV Hungarian Airlines, but it now serves not only MALÉV, but its code-share airline partners as well. This modern, well-designed terminal replaced the original terminal in 1985.

Terminal 2B

Although connected to Terminal 2A, it is referred to as a separate terminal. It serves all of the other international flights and airlines not served by Terminal 2A.
