Tarom, owned by the Ministry of Transport, currently operates one flight every weekday, but will introduce one more every day (including weekends) as of February 6.
Ministry official Bogdan Donciu said the occupancy of flights on this route is low and Tarom might consider lowering the fares in the future.
After Malev announced the cancellation of all its flights, airline Ryanair added 26 new flights from Budapest, while Wizz Air stated it would invest $100 million to expand its operations in Hungary’s capital.
