Wizz Air, the leading low-cost carrier in Central and Eastern Europe and Europe’s greenest airline* announces today two new routes from Bucharest to Vienna and Heraklion (Crete). Passengers can already book tickets from as low as RON 89 on www.wizzair.com or via the WIZZ mobile app**.
With the new service to Heraklion, Wizz Air brings opportunities to visit Greece at attractive, low fares, while Vienna becomes more accessible with five weekly flights from the Romanian Capital, which is the forth Romanian airport with Wizz Air operations to Vienna, next to Cluj-Napoca, Suceava and Constanta, announced in May.
Today’s announcement comes as the new era of sanitized travel begins at Wizz Air. The airline recently announced a range of enhanced hygiene measures, to ensure the health and safety of its customers and crew. As part of these new protocols, throughout the flight, both cabin crew and passengers are required to wear facemasks, with cabin crew also required to wear gloves. Wizz Air’s aircraft are regularly put through an industry-leading fogging process with an antiviral solution and, following WIZZ’s stringent daily cleaning schedule, all the airline’s aircraft are further disinfected overnight with the same antiviral solution. Sanitizing wipes are handed to each passenger upon entering the aircraft, onboard magazines have been removed from the aircraft, and any onboard purchases are encouraged to be made by contactless payment. Passengers are requested to follow physical distancing measures introduced by the local health authorities and are encouraged to make all purchases prior to the flight online (e.g. checked in luggage, WIZZ Priority, fast security track), to minimize any possible physical contact at the airport.

By adding WIZZ Flex to a booking, passengers can rest assured that if circumstances change, or they simply wish to travel on a different date, or to a different destination, they can rebook on any WIZZ flight of their choice. Providing that extra layer of protection for passenger bookings, is a peace of mind during these uncertain times.
Paulina Gosk, Corporate Communications Manager at Wizz Air, said: “Wizz Air continues to expand its network across Romania with two new routes announced today from Bucharest to Vienna and Heraklion. We want our passengers to enjoy the new travel opportunities while being and feeling safe and comfortable. We have implemented a number of additional health and wellbeing measures for passengers and crew on board, in accordance with government regulations, so that we can continue to provide top travel experience at attractive, low fares.”
