Exclusive: Hungarian airforce flies orchestra to Brussels
OrchestrasWhen their flight was cancelled on Monday morning, the Budapest Festival Orchestra were in despair.
They were due to play that evening at the Bozar in Brussels to mark Hungary’s presidency of the Council of the European Union.
This was a national emergency.
So the Hungarian Defense Forces sent a plane from Kecskemét air base to Budapest, where the orchestra boarded and was flown to Brussels, making it in time for the evening’s concert.
