Wizz Air inaugurates new flight from Rome to Abu Dhabi

Wizz Air operated its first flight today between Rome Fiumicino and Abu Dhabi, once again confirming the importance of the Rome - Fiumicino hub in the airline's expansion plans in Italy.

The new route will be served by daily flights. Located in the largest of the seven Emirates, Abu Dhabi is a modern and cosmopolitan city with impressive glass skyscrapers, large tree-lined boulevards and long public beaches. Abu Dhabi also has a very ancient past that is reflected in its interesting cultural offerings: UNESCO World Heritage sites, architectural beauties, ancient palaces, fortresses and local art. It is also home to the Majestic Sheikh Zayed Mosque, where the world's largest hand-woven carpet is kept.

Once again, theRome Fiumicino's Leonardo da Vinci airport is confirmed as a key player in Wizz Air's growth plans in Italy. In fact, the airline recently announced the allocation of two more Airbus A321neo aircraft that will allow Wizz Air's network from Rome to grow to a total of 67 routes in the summer of 2023. With this offer, this summer Wizz Air will have the largest schedule from the airport among all airlines operating there.

Tamara Nikiforova, Corporate Communications Manager, Wizz Air Group, stated, "We are pleased to open the connection between two major capitals and at the same time two important bases for Wizz Air. The new low-cost route will enable tourists and residents in Italy and the UAE to travel directly from one point to another at affordable prices, further strengthening global connectivity. The airline remains strongly committed to the Italian market, confirming its agility and willingness to seize market opportunities to better serve its customers. The WIZZ team looks forward to welcoming passengers aboard our modern, young and sustainable aircraft".
