Budapest Airport welcomed first Jazeera Airways flight
Yesterday marked the launch of the first-ever non-stop flight between Budapest Airport, part of the VINCI Airports network, and Kuwait, operated by Jazeera Airways. This inaugural service establishes a brand-new connection between Hungary and the Gulf region, reflecting the growing demand for enhanced travel links between Central Europe and the Middle East. Operating twice-weekly until mid-September 2025, the new route adds further depth to Budapest Airport's expanding Middle Eastern network and represents a significant milestone as Jazeera Airways begins operations in Hungary for the first time. Jazeera Airways is a leading low-cost carrier based in Kuwait and operates a network of more than 60 destination across Europe, the Middle East, Central and South East Asia, and Africa with a fleet of 24 A320neo and A320ceo. Supported by Visit Hungary, the route not only facilitates non-stop travel between the two cities but also strengthens onward connectivity from Kuwait, particularly to destinations in India and the Gulf region. This strategic link enhances Budapest's role as a key destination hub in the region, supporting both tourism and business travel. As part of Budapest Airport's S25 schedule, which includes nearly 17,000 weekly seats to the Middle East, the new service is a timely and valuable addition that broadens travel opportunities for Hungarian and international passengers alike. 'The arrival of Jazeera Airways marks the beginning of a promising new partnership and demonstrates the continued appeal of Budapest as a strategic destination for international carriers,' said Markus Klaushofer, Chief Commercial Officer, Budapest Airport. 'We're committed to offering our passengers more choice and convenience, and this new connection plays an important role in further strengthening our position as a key aviation hub in the region.' Barathan Pasupathi, CEO, Jazeera Airways said: 'We are pleased to be the only airline to offer a direct connection between Kuwait and Hungary. This new route opens up exciting opportunities for travel and trade and expands our footprint in Europe as we continue to grow our network. We thank Budapest Airport and Visit Hungary for their warm welcome and look forward to establishing presence in this dynamic market.'

VINCI Construction expands in Canada with acquisition of Peters Bros Construction
VINCI Construction has finalised the acquisition of Peters Bros Construction, a Canadian paving company specialising in roadwork services and asphalt products. This move is set to bolster VINCI's operations in Western Canada, particularly in the British Columbia interior region where Peters Bros is well-established. Peters Bros, founded in 1981 and headquartered in the Okanagan Valley, employs up to 140 people during peak season. The company, which primarily operates in areas such as Dawson Creek, Williams Lake, Merritt, Kelowna, and Penticton, reported annual revenues of approximately C$90m ($70.2m) in 2024. VINCI Construction already operates in the Vancouver area, as well as in Alberta and Saskatchewan. With British Columbia's population projected to grow by 50% by 2046, VINCI aims to meet the increasing demand for road infrastructure in the province. VINCI, a global player in concessions, energy solutions, and construction, employs 285,000 people in more than 120 countries. The company is involved in designing, financing, building, and operating infrastructure. In recent developments, Balfour Beatty VINCI's (BBV) tunnel boring machine, Mary Ann, completed the first bore of the 5.8km Bromford Tunnel, a significant step in the UK's High Speed Two railway project. A team of 450 from BBV achieved this milestone in under two years. Additionally, in April this year, VINCI Building was selected by Muse and Bury Council as the contractor for the over £100m redevelopment of the Longfield Centre in Prestwich, England. VINCI will commence work on the project, following initial stages led by Chroma Consulting, starting with the construction of the Travel Hub at the site.
