Wizz announce Luton – Kiev flights
12.10.08
Wizz Air has announced that it will launch flights between Luton Airport and Kiev Boryspil starting from 17 December. It becomes the first low cost airline to operate an international route between the UK and Ukraine, opening the opportunity of low cost travel to many Ukrainians visiting, living or working in the UK as well as British tourists and businessmen who so far 'had to cope with high fare monopolists on the route,' a spokesman said.
The new service will initially be operated four times a week, moving to daily as of 28 March 2009. Tickets are already on sale with one-way all-inclusive fares starting from £69.
John Stephenson, Chief Commercial Officer of Wizz Air, said: ‘The launch of this London – Kiev route is a milestone in the aviation between Europe and Ukraine as it is the very first international low cost service to Ukraine. So far it has been a very protective market with high fares and no service alternatives. British travellers are already well familiar with Wizz Air’s services, as we offer flights to 12 CEE destinations from the UK. Now Ukrainians can enjoy our low fares, reliable service on our brand new Airbus A320 aircraft and the freedom of choice.’
