Ljubljana, new Wizz Air destination from Charleroi

Post by sn26567 »

Brussels South Charleroi Airport announced today the opening of a new route to Ljubljana, the capital city of Slovenia. As from 29 October, this new route will be operated by Wizz Air twice a week. This is the 6th destination proposed by the Hungarian airline from Brussels South Charleroi Airport.

Ljubljana was built near the Alps in the centre of Slovenia on the Ljubljanica river. The turbulent history of the city (a Roman city destroyed by the Huns under Attila’s orders, and later by the Ostrogoths and Lombards) and two major earthquakes resulted in numerous architectural styles that makes it a captivating city to visit.

Strolling in Ljubljana and crossing the Dragon bridge (the dragon is the symbol of the city) are a must-do.

To celebrate the launch of this new route, Wizz Air is selling tickets as from €22,99 (per person, per journey, all taxes included. Tickets are available for booking on www.wizzair.com.

The launch of these routes signals the return of Wizz Air to the Slovenian market 6 years after its first flight to Ljubljana. At a time when traditional high-fare airlines face strong challenges due to high costs in the aviation industry, Wizz Air stimulates tourism and passenger traffic with low fares. To celebrate this important development for Slovenian tourism Wizz Air tickets from Ljubljana are now available from just €22.99 (one way, including taxes) on wizzair.com.

“Wizz Air is delighted in launching these two new routes to Brussels and London. Over the last 4 years Slovenian passengers have travelled to airports in neighbouring countries to access low-fare flights. Wizz Air returns to Slovenia with increased efficiency and low costs and will offer Slovenian passengers and visitors really low fares. We expect these low fares on our five weekly flights to be very popular and hope to invest further in Slovenian tourism and job growth in the future,” said József Váradi, CEO of Wizz Air.

We are excited about Wizz Air’s return, which in the current recession really is something to celebrate. We’re focused on delivering value for money flights for the passengers at Ljubljana Airport and our relationship with Wizz Air means that travellers can take advantage of low fares to new exciting destinations” said Zmago Skobir, CEO of Ljubljana Airport.
