Direct Flight “To Boost” Hungary Canada Cooperation
- 15 May 2015 9:00 AM
Two new direct flights between Budapest and Toronto are set to boost cooperation between Hungary and Canada, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó told MTI. Attending a two-day foreign ministerial session of the NATO states in Antalya, Turkey, where he held talks with his Canadian counterpart Robert Nicholson, Szijjártó said one of the main topics of discussion was the direct flight connection soon to be re-established between the two countries.
SkyGreece is launching direct flights between Budapest and Toronto later this month, operating the flight twice a week. Canadian carrier Air Transat will launch a direct flight from Budapest to Montreal in June.
The two new transatlantic flights will boost economic ties between the two countries, he said. Canada sees Hungary as a key partner, as it is the most attractive central European investment destination for Canadian companies, he said.
Companies are investing in the automotive industry, environmental protection and real estate development, he added.
