We have the most dynamic start of the year in commercial aviation in Romania, compared to the 4 years of existence AirlinesTravel.ro. After the many promotions on air tickets announced by different air carriers, the avalanche of new routes arrived, some more attractive than others.
After I told you yesterday that TAP Portugal gives up the Bucharest - Lisbon route, more and more voices were announcing Wizz Air as the favorite operator, but it wasn't to be. Blue Air reacted immediately and today came the big news: Bucharest - Lisbon starting with June 2016. We still don't have details about the schedule and fares, but we will follow the Blue Air website and come back with the information.
Blue Air also operated this route, but gave up on 2013, making room for TAP Portugal operator and allowing them to charge fares over 200 EURO for return flights. Hopefully, the Blue Air fares will be lower, even if we talk about a route over 4 hours and without competition.
