UK Planes Allowed Into Hungary Again
The Hungarian government has decided to lift the ban on passenger flights arriving from the United Kingdom from midnight on yesterday, Tuesday 5 January, a member of the operative body responsible for handling the epidemic response said.

Róbert Kiss told a regular press conference on Tuesday that Hungarian passengers will be subject to restrictions already in force and will be required to enter mandatory self-quarantine.

The government will soon make further decisions on other restrictions such as the night-time curfew, mask-wearing, and limits on shopping and attendance of events, he said.
