Wizz Air, the largest low-cost airline in Central and Eastern Europe, announced a new route from Budapest to Berlin-Schoenefeld, today.
The new service is due to start 13th March and will be a daily flight using their existing fleet of modern aircraft. One way fares on the new service will start at less than £10, including hand luggage.
The announcement today follows the start of 11 new Budapest routes in 2017. The airline will launch three more Budapest services this year connecting the Hungarian capital with Bordeaux, Agadir and Frankfurt, while flights to Stavanger and Basel will commence in spring 2018. Together with Berlin, starting from 2017 Wizz Air is adding a total of 17 exciting destinations to its Budapest network, which now consists of 67 low-fare routes.
Being the hometown airline of Hungary, Wizz Air currently operates flights from two Hungarian bases in Budapest and Debrecen with a total of 12 aircraft in the country, and two more aircraft to join the Budapest fleet in 2018, increasing the capacity on routes from Hungary to 5,5 million seats. In the past 12 months, more than 4 million passengers flew with WIZZ to and from Hungary, which represents a 17% growth year over year.
Gabor Vasarhelyi, Corporate Communications Manager at Wizz Air, said: “2017 has been the year of massive expansion for WIZZ in Budapest with the announcement and commencement of long-awaited routes to attractive destinations across Europe and beyond. Today we are delighted to announce the addition of another exciting city to our ever-growing Hungarian network: Berlin is now available on our low fares from Budapest and, operating daily, we are sure this service will be popular among both business and leisure travelers."
