Wizz Air will base a second Airbus A320 aircraft at its Kyiv base. From August 2017 the airline will operate two new services from Kyiv to Copenhagen in Denmark and Nuremberg in Germany. The new aircraft will also allow Wizz Air to increase the number of weekly flights on the existing routes from Kyiv to Budapest, Dortmund, Cologne, Hamburg, Munich Memmingen as well as the newest service to Bratislava that was opened on 17 December.

The first international WIZZ flight took off from Kyiv to London Luton in 2008 and since then Wizz Air carried over 4,5 million passengers on its Kyiv routes. Since June 2015 Wizz Air Hungary operates a base in Kyiv. Adding a second aircraft to Kyiv base represents an investment of € 98 million** by WIZZ in Kyiv, creating 36 additional direct jobs with the airline. Wizz Air’s new employees will join a dedicated local crew, who deliver excellent onboard service on each WIZZ flight. In the first 11 months of 2016, Wizz Air carried over 350,000 passengers on its low-fare Kyiv routes supporting over 260 local jobs***.

With the new services, Wizz Air now offers a total of 16 low-fare routes to eight countries from Kyiv, while the latest announcement represents more than 750,000 seats on Kyiv routes in 2017 which is a 64% growth year over year.  All flights are already on sale and can be booked on wizzair.com from UAH 829*.
