When somebody is stupid, he can not help it. That is why I say stupid is stupid. My wife used LOT the Polish airline for her trip at this time. It is a good, reliable airline with reasonable price. If things go well, they might reinstate their New York to Budapest non-stop service by summer. But if not, the connection is not bad. The transatlantic leg is from here to Warsaw, there the change to the Budapest leg of the flight. and the reverse on the way home.
The airline advised us that for for US citizens there are no restrictions or demands of any kind for coming back to the US. We called the airline before the trip and they enforced this. When my wife went to Hungary last year the pandemic was here and everywhere. She needed all kinds of documents for both ways of her trip. Coming back to the US she needed negative test result within 72 hours of boarding the plane, which she obtained. This test result is not needed now for US citizens.
Yet, some idiot at the Warsaw airport insisted that it was necessary on the return trip. My wife got into an argument and told them that apparently they don't know the latest rules and they should check with their own airline. Bottom line, she won. But it was nerve wrecking that she might be denied boarding and be stuck in Warsaw.
Warsaw, not that bad. The rebuilt old part really nice, some of the hotels really good. You could try it. Generally, Europe is far more interesting than any other continent.
