Review of easyJet flight Mulhouse / Bâle → Budapest in Economy

EAP BASEL MULHOUSE FREIBURG

Welcome to a quick trip to Budapest with my parents. This was their Christmas gift.

I did not look to far to chose the flights since EasyJet flies directly to BUD once a day (pre-COVID) with very good flight times and also a good price. Per person, the price was 50€, plus 40€ for speedy boarding and emergency exit seating.

The drop off was quiet that Friday late morning:

This way up for us:

It's a beautiful morning to fly:

To the departure hall:

At that time, there wasn't too many people:

On the Swiss side there was a bit more people:

Security was quick, there was some work in progress just after it:

We had plent of time to use the lounge since I have a priority pass card to use:

Not for us today, we go this way :)

As usual the staff is smilling and welcomes us warmly.

The new LCC terminal just opened and compared to the old one, it is a brand new world:

It is so much better than the old industrial thing!

The junction between the terminal and the building is not ready yet:
