Hévíz-Balaton Airport transfers

Hévíz-Balaton Airport (IATA SOB) is a small airport just south-west of Sármellék village, west of Lake Balaton. Hévíz-Balaton Airport Kft. runs it, and it has a single 2,500 m concrete runway. The Sármellék and Zalavár municipalities own it, and it has closed in some winters, so many Balaton visitors will find more flights at Budapest or Vienna.
