No direct flights between Budapest and Zagreb. You could go to Vienna. Austrian Air and Croatia Air fly the route. There's a direct bus between Budapest and the airport in Vienna. Of course, you would be taking a two hour bus ride to Vienna in order to avoid a five hour bus ride to Zagreb....and that doesn't make much sense.

So, I had to get Croatian visa because czech wouldn't issue multiple entry schengen visa unless I had Croatian visa. But, to get Croatian visa I had to have travel docs. D'oh!
Hungarian Railways site is still down or at least wouldn't let me purchase the tickets. One of the consulate officer suggested this bus service. http://www.volanbusz.hu/en
$14 for a bus ride from Budapest to Zagreb and timings are better than the train. Or they claim to atleast. 7AM departure and Noon arrival.

Returning to the subject at hand, I am trying to decide if its worthwhile doing a day trip to Zagreb from Budapest? The train situation sounds awful? Might try Bucharest instead.

Visa? Do you hold a US passport? If so, you won't need a visa to visit Zagreb:

Anyway, back to your question, I couldn't get myself excited to spend time in Zagreb. So I am transiting in ZAG and moving on to lake plitvice.
