Budapest bus route 200E

Route 200E is a bus route in Budapest. Alongside the 100E express service, it is one of two bus lines serving Ferenc Liszt International Airport. During the day, the line runs between the airport and the nearest Budapest Metro station, Kőbánya-Kispest; at night, it runs to Határ út. 200E operates at all times and is operated by Budapesti Közlekedési Zrt. (BKV) for Budapesti Közlekedési Központ (BKK).

History
BKV began operating a local and express bus service to the airport in 1960, initially signed as 93 and 193, respectively. Originally, both routes ran from Vörösmarty tér, but as the M3 metro line was constructed, the inbound terminus of these services first shifted to Nagyvárad tér in the 1970s and then, in 1980, to Kőbánya-Kispest. These services were eventually consolidated in 2000 as the Reptér-busz (Airport Bus). In 2006, this route was resigned as 200.

In 2008, as part of a BKV transit system overhaul, the route was resigned again as 200E. In 2017, it was supplemented by the 100E service; unlike the 100E, however, it does not require a premium fare. Since June 2018, the 200E operates at all times.
