Wizz Air to open new base in Romania
Wizz Air announced that it would open its 8th operating base in Cluj, Romania with one new A320 aircraft and local crew in May 2008. The carrier moved its entire Transylvanian operations to Cluj Airport, including flights to Budapest, Rome, Barcelona and London. The Dortmund route and the recently announced Cluj-Bucharest domestic flight will start at the end of February. New services to Valencia and Milan-Bergamo will be added three times a week, each commencing on 15 May 2008.

 

Concurrently the company has launched its recruitment for local cabin crew and pilots. Wizz Air is looking to hire approximately 40 people to fly the new aircraft from Cluj.

"Cluj will become Wizz Air's second operating base in Romania. Our low fares combined with the convenient travel experience on board of our young A320 fleet, continues to attract an ever increasing number of passengers allowing us to launch more destinations and flights with the aim of becoming the largest low cost airline in Cluj as well as Romania," said Jozsef Varadi, Chief Executive Officer of Wizz Air.”
