LOT Polish Airlines to expand Budapest operations
LOT, which launched its first transatlantic services from Budapest, Hungary to New York JFK and Chicago O’Hare in May, has added London City services to its Hungarian network. From Feb 18, 2019, LOT will offer up to twice-daily flights from Budapest to LCY using Embraer E190s, which are specifically approved for the short runway and steeper-than-normal approach into LCY. LOT will lease 4 new E190 E1 versions, scheduled for delivery by year-end, via Danish lessor Nordic Aviation Capital. LOT said the annual passenger traffic on the Budapest-London route is 1.4m passengers. The carrier sees LCY as an alternative to other flights offered on London-Budapest route using airports including Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton and Southend. <br/>
