Wizz Air expands its Polish operations
The Eastern-European low-cost airline Wizz Air has announced that it is to open its seventh operational base at Pozan, in the West of Poland.
The development will also see the airline add to existing services between the UK and Poland, with a further two routes to be offered from the end of January 2008.
In addition to the current service from Luton Airport, Prozan will also be made directly available to passengers flying from Doncaster Sheffield and Glasgow Prestwick Airports, the airline confirmed, with one-way flights to cost as little as £13.50, inclusive of all taxes and charges.
“Wizz Air continues to pursue its expansion strategy in Poland with the establishment of the Poznan base early next year following the developments in Katowice, Warsaw and Gdansk,” said Jozsef Varadi, Wizz Air chief executive officer.
“The move is expected to create hundreds of local jobs and significant revenue uplift for the tourism industry in the region.”
Earlier this month the airline announced the launch of a new service linking the UK to the Transylvania region of Romania.
