Budapest Airport adds to its ever-growing list of achievements and retains the prestigious title of ‘Best Airport in Eastern Europe’, announced at the Skytrax World Airport Awards ceremony last night. For the first time in its history, the airport was named the winner for a second year in a row, receiving the accolade during Passenger Terminal EXPO 2015 conference and exhibition in the heart of Paris.

Receiving the esteemed industry award on behalf of the airport, Péter Huszka, COO of Budapest Airport commented: “To earn the ranking as the top airport in Eastern Europe for a second consecutive year is truly a notable achievement for us all at Budapest Airport. The Skytrax Awards are iconic throughout the air transport industry and reflect not only the outstanding service provided to our passengers but also our continued commitment to further improvements. We are highly honoured to retain our position as overall winner in our region, the recognition from our passengers is exceedingly significant for all airport staff and an incentive for continued excellence.”

Skytrax World Airport Awards are announced following the results of passenger surveys conducted throughout airports, objectively evaluating the quality of services provided. Based on 12 million customer nominations, across 110 nationalities, and including 410 airports worldwide, the survey evaluates airports across 39 services and products, from check-in, arrivals, security, shopping, through to transfers and departure at the gate. Being named winner for a second year running is testament to Budapest Airport’s ever-expanding popularity as an important tourist destination.

Acknowledging the award, Jost Lammers, CEO of Budapest Airport added: “It is exceptionally rewarding to see that our dedication and commitment have been recognised by such a prestigious industry accolade, which celebrates airports worldwide continuously improving passenger experience. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all departments and staff at our airport for their steadfast support and hard work.”
