A new regular Wizz Air flight will carry passengers between Budapest and Türkiye’s biggest city, the historic and cultural centre of the country. Furthermore, the Hungarian budget airline plans to announce further Turkish flights soon.

Wizz Air takes you from Budapest to Istanbul

According to Budflyer, a Hungarian travel Facebook page, the first Wizz Air Istanbul flight took off on Friday from Budapest’s Liszt Ferenc International Airport. The airline plans to carry passengers to the greatest Turkish city every day.

Zsuzsa Trubek, the communications manager of the Hungarian budget airline, said they are happy they could launch their first flight to Istanbul’s nr1 international airport, a historic, artistic and cultural hub of Europe. “That is another milestone in the life of our airline, which will be followed by additional Türkiye-flights from Hungary”, she added. The company’s manager highlighted that they are committed to enabling travelling for as many people as possible.

Balázs Bogáts, the Airline Development Director of the Budapest Airport, said that the new flight strengthens the connections between Hungary and Türkiye. “Istanbul is a defining trade and transport hub between the East and the West, while Antalya is the gate of the Southern Mediterranean region of the country”, he added. Therefore, they are sure the new flights will be popular both for holidaymakers and passengers doing business.

Wizz Air also launched two new routes from London Luton Airport and Gatwick Airport to Istanbul in Türkiye, the company’s official website said.
