Menzies Aviation has completed a strategic partnership with Airport Service Budapest, significantly expanding its presence at Budapest Airport (BUD). Following receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, Airport Service Budapest’s operations, including ground handling and cargo services, have been merged with Menzies Aviation Hungary and Menzies Aviation Cargo Hungary. All employees have been integrated into the new structure, and the SkyCourt Lounge is now part of Menzies’ premium service. Together, the companies will handle over 2,500 flights and over 12,000 tonnes of cargo per month at BUD.
According to Miguel Gomez Schunnesson, Executive Vice President Europe, this partnership enables Menzies Aviation to effectively respond to growing demand and provide a premium service to its customers in Budapest. The expansion follows the company’s investment in the airport’s new cargo infrastructure in 2024.
This integration supports Budapest Airport’s ambition to increase passenger traffic to 20 million by 2030 and strengthens Menzies Aviation’s position as a key player in aviation and logistics services in the Central and Eastern European market.
