As of late afternoon Friday, 44 of the tourist boat passengers' family members were on their way to Budapest, with the first group expected to land in at around 1 PM, local time, on Friday.
5 more family members are set to depart this weekend.
The travel agency that organized the ill-fated tour has also sent some of its employees to the site of the accident.
Fourteen employees are currently in Hungary and attended the emergency meeting organized by South Korea's foreign ministry.
Two more are currently en route while eight more are expected to join shortly to assist the family members of the victims.
The travel agency says the South Korean government arranged accommodation for all the family members and travel agency employees in Budapest.
They will stay at four different hotels, just fifteen minutes away from the site of the accident.
The travel agency also said,... it has stopped offering cruise tours for their Europe package trips,... and is accepting customers' requests to cancel tours that include cruises that have already been booked.
From Saturday, instead of an official press briefing, the travel agency will address reporters' questions twice a day at 10 AM and 4 PM local time.
