The national airline will now fly to Tirana in Albania and Sarajevo in Bosnia & Herzegovina
Abu Dhabi, UAE: Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, a UAE national airline, has announced two new destinations as part of its flight network. The new destinations of Tirana in Albania and Sarajevo in Bosnia & Herzegovina bring Wizz Air Abu Dhabi to a total of 31 routes since launching earlier this year. The flights to each destination will commence on 11th of September and 3rd of October respectively.
The flight to Tirana will operate twice a week on Tuesday and Saturday, while flights to Sarajevo will operate twice a week on Wednesday and Sunday. Tickets are on sale on wizzair.com and the airline’s mobile app (also available in Arabic), with fares starting as low as AED 179*.
The vibrant capital of Albania, Tirana enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate nestled next to vast and beautiful mountains. A city with a stormy past now exudes culture, history and architecture set to dazzle visitors. Sarajevo in Bosnia & Herzegovina is a resilient city steeped in culture and historical significance, and has naturally become a melting pot of religion and cuisine. Visitors can soak up the city’s atmosphere by exploring the many lanes and markets throughout.
Kees Van Schaick, Managing Director of Wizz Air Abu Dhabi said: “We continue to add a diverse and eclectic mix of destinations to our network to ensure that there is an appealing travel option for all. Tirana and Sarajevo are fascinating destinations, rich in culture and both set amid impressive mountainous backdrops.”
“When we launched at the start of 2021, we committed to rapid expansion of our network as well as providing viable and ultra-low fare travel for UAE residents and inbound tourists. With 31 routes now on our roster, we continue to deliver on this promise and look forward to welcoming even more travellers onboard our aircraft.”
Wizz Air Abu Dhabi has the youngest fleet composed of four brand new state-of-the-art Airbus A321neo aircraft, offering the lowest fuel burn, emissions, and noise footprint.
