New ranks were set for Főtaxi and the signs for the old ones were covered. Security guards were present but no problems occurred.

Zóna reported the airport operator to the police, saying it had no right to replace the signs for the Zóna ranks and to put “No entry” signs in front of them.

Operator Budapest Airport now requires entry permits from taxi drivers, citing ongoing construction work. As a result, only Főtaxi drivers and cars can enter the airport, excluding all other taxi companies, including Zóna."
