EasyJet has today announced the launch of a new route from Liverpool John Lennon Airport to Budapest, with flights now on sale. 

Flights to Hungary’s capital will start on 19 November 2026 and operate twice a week on Thursdays and Sundays, providing customers with even more choice of winter city break destinations direct from Liverpool.

The addition of Budapest offers customers a fantastic option for a cultural getaway, combining historic architecture and world-famous thermal baths. 

Budapest is one of Europe’s most popular city break destinations, known for landmarks such as Buda Castle, the Parliament Building and the Chain Bridge. 

Visitors can relax in its iconic spas, explore the Danube riverfront and enjoy a thriving food and drink scene, making it an ideal destination year-round, particularly during the festive winter season.

Seats are available to book now at easyJet.com and via the easyJet mobile app from £25.99.

easyJet Liverpool to Budapest Holiday Packages and Flight Schedules

The new link allows holidaymakers to secure fully protected getaway arrangements to Eastern Europe ahead of the traditional winter peak.

EasyJet holidays are also offering package holidays to Budapest, including return flights and hotel accommodation, with a range of options available. 

All packages include Ultimate Flexibility, offering customers the freedom to amend or cancel their booking, as well as a refund guarantee and best price guarantee.

Kevin Doyle, easyJet’s UK Country Manager, said: 

“We’re excited to be adding Budapest to our growing network from Liverpool, giving customers even more choice when planning their holidays.

“Budapest is a hugely popular destination, particularly during the winter season, and we’re confident this new route will appeal to customers looking for a great value city break and to travel with ease.”

Director Praises Regional Impact of easyJet Liverpool to Budapest Link

The expanded route choice strengthens the transport connectivity for millions of outbound flyers based across North Wales and the surrounding northern counties.

Paul Winfield, Aviation Director at Liverpool John Lennon Airport, said: 

“We are pleased that easyJet is expanding choice for our passengers with the addition of Budapest, responding to strong demand for additional frequency to this popular destination. 

“The new service enhances Liverpool’s connectivity for passengers across the North West and North Wales, while further strengthening our offering to key city break markets..

“EasyJet’s continued growth at the North West’s Faster, Easier, Friendlier Airport demonstrates the strength of the Liverpool market, and we anticipate this new service will prove very popular with travellers across the region.”

EasyJet and easyJet holidays have introduced their Book with Confidence Promise to reassure customers on their travel plans. 

The pledge guarantees that flight and package prices will not increase once booked and confirms that easyJet intends to operate a full schedule across its network as it prepares to fly over 50 million passengers this summer.

EasyJet’s extensive network from Liverpool now offers 41 routes to 18 countries, providing customers with more choice and great value fares. 

Over the past 12 months, easyJet has continued to expand its Liverpool network, adding a number of new destinations and increasing capacity at the airport.

During the summer, the airline based an additional aircraft in Liverpool, bringing the total to eight, enabling even more choice and flexibility for customers booking flights and package holidays across Europe and North Africa.
