Year 2017 brings some strategic moves on the European market. Low cost airlines target major airports. Until now, most LCC operators were looking to operate point-to-point flights between secondary airports.
After Ryanair has announced a base in Frankfurt, it is the turn of Wizz Air to announce flights to / from Frankfurt International Airport (FRA). We also hope for a strategic move from Blue Air.
Wizz Air flights from Frankfurt
According to the Wizz Air release, the Frankfurt - Sofia route will be inaugurated starting with May 22ndand from December 15, 2017, flights will be operated on the route Frankfurt - Budapest. From what we can see, daily flights will be operated from bases in Hungary and Bulgaria.
Airbus A321ceo aircraft, the newest type of aircraft in the Wizz Air fleet, will be used. Rates start at 29.99 EURO / segment.
Will we be surprised to see Wizz Air flights on the route Bucharest - Frankfurt?
