Budapest Airport international departures. We are at Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD) or formerly called Budapest Ferihegy International Airport or just Ferihegy, located in Budapest Hungary. We are on our way home back to Copenhagen after a long weekend stay in Budapest the capital of Hungary.\r
\r
Our video footage begins at the main international departures terminal where we have just arrived from the city by taxi. Inside the terminal we arrive at a smallish check in area where there are both human Check-In personal and Check-In machines. Our flight to Copenhagen was with SAS (Scandinavian Airlines) and there was unfortunately not an option for Self Check-In of SAS flights on the Self Service Check In Machine. We therefore had to wait for a check-in counter to open for SAS which was in one hour after our arrival. We therefore opted to move to a coffee shop in the Check-In area and have a coffee whilst we waited for the Scandinavian Airlines Check In Desk to open. It was very noteworthy and nostalgic to see that Budapest Airport is still using the very old Flight information boards, which took you back to the nostalgic 70´s and 80´s airport atmosphere. Following our Check-In we passed through customs and immediately found ourselves walking in the Tax Free Shopping area. The products available for sale included the normal perfumes, alcohol, chocolates & candies normally available at Tax Free shops in airports and also included a large section of Hungarian specialties! After the tax free area you walk into the huge main international terminal full of light thanks to it´s huge windows offering a view of the sky and the aircraft gate area and runways! This area is two levels, the bottom area is the waiting area with shops and the second level is where the airports Food Court lies! It is in this main international departures area passengers wait until information is given on which gate their flight will be departing from. From this area we walked to our gate. The Gate areas still offer a limited selection of shopping opportunities (before your flight) and also a limited selection of cafe´s/restaurants or fast food store!\r
