You can buy 10 in bulk and pay 3,000 forints in total, or 300 forints each to save some money. The 200E and M3 both cost a single BKK transport ticket, which is 350 forints.

Not only is the Bus 200E and Metro combo cheaper, but it also allows you to get to accommodations in Budapest that aren’t in the city center.

The bus 200E travels from the Budapest Airport to Kőbánya-Kispest Metro station, where travelers can hop on the metro and get to not just the city center, but any part of the city they would like. If you are a budget traveler, then the bus 200E and Metro M3 combo is the cheapest way to get from Budapest Airport to the City Center.

These three stops cover the main touristic areas of the city center – from the Inner District to the historic Jewish quarter to the Palace District. That is because it is affordable at 900 forints (less than 3 USD), has only a total of 3 stops (not including the airport), and takes usually 30 to 45 minutes. The Airport bus 100E is arguably the most popular way to get from the airport to the city center.
