Speaking at a press conference in Cluj-Napoca, Tamara Vallois, Head of Communications at Wizz Air, said: ”We are delighted to be celebrating this remarkable milestone with Cluj Airport today. As Romania’s largest airline, we are committed to the country by stimulating tourism and hospitality sectors as well as developing our low-fare network not only in the capital but in the regions as well. We are thrilled to be growing our young fleet to five aircraft in Cluj-Napoca today, which means more jobs at the base and in supporting industries and more low-fare routes for our customers.
The three international destinations that we have added to our network are a perfect combination of a summer sun holiday in Alicante, a family vacation in Billund and a city break in Doncaster Sheffield. Today also marks a new era in domestic Romanian air travel with our first domestic route connecting Cluj-Napoca with Bucharest, at our low fares of only RON 39* and a convenient schedule we look forward to providing our customers with the best choice to commute within Romania. Our professional crew looks forward to greeting many happy passengers on board of our five Cluj-Napoca aircraft.”
