Lounge access options at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport — Priority Pass, airline lounges and day passes.

Lounges at BUD

BUD's lounges are concentrated around Terminal 2, split between the Schengen pier (2A) and non-Schengen pier (2B), so which lounge you can use depends on whether your flight is within or outside the Schengen area.

Platinum Lounge (Schengen, 2A)
Platinum Lounge (Non-Schengen, 2B)
Plaza Premium Lounge (Non-Schengen, 2B)
SkyCourt Lounge (Terminal 2 Skycourt)

Insider tip

Check whether your flight departs from the Schengen (2A) or non-Schengen (2B) pier before heading to a lounge — the two piers have separate lounges and you generally can't cross between them after security, so picking the wrong one based on an old review can mean missing lounge access entirely.

Lounge availability, access policies and amenities at BUD change regularly. Verify with the lounge operator or your card/membership provider before travel.
