Hi Kate Jankelowitz,
when does your bus depart? The fastest option is taxi, but it is also by far the most expansive one.

Hi Kate ,
generally you would need to get to bus station from the Airport and from there you can take a direct bus to Bratislava. Alternatively you can get to Bratislava also by train.
Regards

Hi Rafa,
after your arrival to Bratislava airport, get a bus number 61 to get to Bratislava train station. From there, we recommend to go by train: https://bratislava-slovakia.eu/travel/budapest-bratislava/budapest-train
