Wizz Air, one of the fastest-growing airlines in Europe has launched 18 new routes from London Gatwick Airport. The new routes follow the reopening of London Gatwick’s South Terminal last weekend and a massive positive step forward in the recovery of the UK's travel industry.
The new routes feature a wide choice of destinations with a mixture of year-round and seasonal services to Bari, Bourgas, Faro, Milan, Naples, Palermo, Rome, Palma de Mallorca, Larnaca, Varna, Venice, Vienna, Catania, Podgorica, Tel Aviv, Chania, Mykonos and Funchal.
With the introduction of the news services the budget airline that took millions in furlough payments from the UK government will operate a total of 25 routes from Gatwick Airport.
Marion Geoffroy, Managing Director of Wizz Air UK, said: “Today’s route launches signify the start of an exciting new chapter for Wizz Air UK at Gatwick Airport as we embark on the summer travel season. Through this significant expansion, we are reaffirming our commitment to providing low-fare connectivity to our customers in London and the South of England – and we want them to know that WIZZ is here to stay."
Jonathan Pollard, Chief Commercial Officer, Gatwick Airport said: “We are delighted that Wizz is adding 18 new routes to its Gatwick offer, meaning passengers can now fly from Gatwick with Wizz to a total of 25 popular European destinations. Wizz’s expansion and commitment to Gatwick marks the start of an exciting time for the airport as well as the airline, coinciding with the reopening of Gatwick’s South Terminal. Wizz’s growing range of destinations is excellent news for passengers across London and the South East, providing more choice and competition to in-demand destinations.”
Henry Smith, Member of Parliament for Crawley, said: "It's fantastic to welcome Wizz Air to Gatwick, with both the airline and airport's commitment to sustainability, customer choice, service and good value, it's a natural partnership which represents the very best of our aviation sector's recovery following Covid restrictions being lifted.
