The first resumed flights from Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport took off on Friday, writes MTI. The airport operator said the passengers behaved well and complied with security measures.

The first resumed flight was on Wizz Air and departed for Berlin. The crew was ready for the passengers, inspection and delivery were easy. The operator stressed that every effort will be made to keep passengers and workers safe at the airport.

There are several ways to accomplish this: Floor decals help passengers maintain the correct distance, and information panels also include basic requirements. Also, hand sanitizers are constantly refilled and sanitizer cleaning is done more frequently. From the staff, those who, due to their work, cannot keep a distance of 1.5 meters between people should wear a mask.

Budapest Airport encourages travelers to use the self-service baggage check-in system and prefer online check-in to minimize physical contact.

Wizz Air and KLM announced last week that they will resume some of the flights they had previously suspended due to the coronavirus outbreak in early May.

The airport operator previously said that in April, 99.3 percent of passenger traffic was reduced, and instead of 44,000 passengers a day last year, there were fewer than three hundred passengers at the airport.

According to forecasts, after the reopening of the borders, a slow increase in traffic is expected for economic and health reasons, so it is unlikely that passenger traffic at the Budapest airport will reach the 17 million previously planned or the 16 million registered last year, either this year or in the next two or three years.
