The low-cost airline Wizz Air launched a direct flight from Debrecen to Rome on Wednesday.

Wizz Air, a Hungarian-owned airline, launched its first direct flight from Debrecen to Rome on Wednesday. The new route will operate twice weekly to the Italian capital.

“We are delighted to be able to add such a fabulous city to our destinations from Debrecen Airport. Italy’s capital is a bucket list destination for many reasons, whether it’s the monuments or the fantastic food. We are confident that it will be a deservedly popular destination for our passengers,” said Zsuzsa Trubek, Communications Manager of Wizz Air.

Tamás Király, CEO of Debrecen International Airport Ltd., said that the new destinations could even increase the economic and tourism strength of the region.

Wizz Air has recently introduced several innovations in Hungary. It has moved its Scotland flight from Edinburgh to Glasgow, and from October, it operates more flights from Budapest to Abu Dhabi, Hurghada, Madeira, Tenerife, Alicante, Madrid and Milan, index.hu writes.
