Update time 15: 57, 2 more 2013: We seem to have enjoyed it for nothing. The route is no longer valid and the information is withdrawn. It seems that it did not match the Wizz Air summer schedule. We will come back with information!
Wizz Air announced today the first direct route from Romania to Ukraine: Bucharest - Kiev Zhulyany. The new route will be operated initially by 4 twice a week, starting with July 5.
Kiev is the capital, the largest city in Ukraine and an important industrial, scientific, educational and cultural center in Eastern Europe. Modern Kiev is a mix of history (Kiev has preserved approximately 70% of more than 1000 of buildings built during the 1907-1914 period) with the new one, encountered everywhere, from architecture, shops and streets. Kiev is recognized as a green city, with two botanical gardens and numerous parks. Kiev Zhulyany Airport is just 8 km from the city center.
Wizz Air flights on the new Kiev Zhulyany route are already available for sale and can be booked on wizzair.com with fares starting from 109 lei / segment.

Wizz Air estimates that it will carry over 60.000 passengers on this route in the first 12 months.
We remind you that, starting with 10 in January, AeroSvit Airlines canceled flights on the route Kiev - Bucharest.
Guerrilla PR! I remember my first trip to Kiev by plane: a Tupolev or what it was, trembling with screws. Steward whistled, offered us candy on a stainless tray, smiling. There were about 5 passengers, I was standing with my luggage under my feet, so that was for sure. I talked to the steward up to Kiev. Epic!
Probably we will also see at LROP the Airbus A320 with winglet from Wizz Ukraine
