=== Transport === {{Main|Transport in Hungary}} [[File:Esztergom.desiro.JPG|thumb|[[Siemens Desiro]] passenger trains on the [[Hungarian State Railways]] network, which is one of the [[List of countries by rail transport network size|densest in the world]]]] Hungary has a highly developed road, railway, air, and water transport system. Budapest serves as an important hub for the [[Hungarian State Railways|Hungarian railway system]] (''MÁV''). The capital is served by three large train stations called ''[[Budapest Keleti station|Keleti]]'' (Eastern), ''[[Budapest Nyugati station|Nyugati]]'' (Western), and ''[[Budapest Déli station|Déli]]'' (Southern) ''pályaudvar''s (termii). [[Szolnok]] is the most important railway hub outside Budapest, while [[Miskolc Tiszai railway station|Tiszai Railway Station]] in Miskolc and the main stations of [[Szombathely]], [[Győr]], [[Szeged]], and [[Székesfehérvár]] are also key to the network. From March 2024, transport on the Hungarian railway ''MÁV'' will be free for people aged 65 and over and under 14 years of age.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://dailynewshungary.com/key-changes-in-hungarian-public-transport-summarised-in-10-points/|title=Key changes in Hungarian public transport summarised in 10 points – Daily News Hungary|date=10 January 2024}}</ref> Budapest, [[Debrecen]], Miskolc, and [[Szeged]] have tram networks. The [[Budapest Metro]] is the second-oldest underground [[rapid transit|metro]] system in the world; its [[Metro Line M1 (Budapest Metro)|Line 1]] dates from 1896. The system consists of four lines. A [[regional rail|commuter rail]] system, ''[[BHÉV|HÉV]]'', operates in the Budapest metropolitan area. Hungary has a total length of approximately {{convert|1314|km|2|abbr=on}} motorways ({{langx|hu|autópálya}}). Motorway sections are being added to the existing network, which already connects many major economically important cities to the capital. Ports are located at Budapest, [[Dunaújváros]] and [[Baja, Hungary|Baja]]. There are five international airports: [[Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport|Budapest Ferenc Liszt]] (informally called "Ferihegy"), [[Debrecen International Airport|Debrecen]], [[Hévíz–Balaton Airport|Hévíz–Balaton]] (also called Sármellék Airport), [[Győr-Pér International Airport|Győr-Pér]], and [[Pécs-Pogány International Airport|Pécs-Pogány]], but only two of these (Budapest and Debrecen) receive scheduled flights. Low-budget airline [[Wizz Air]] is based at Ferihegy.
