On Wednesday (December 23, 2020), Wizz Air UK announced the addition of six new routes to popular holiday destinations for spring 2021. The carrier will launch four summer-only routes from Doncaster-Sheffield including twice-weekly flights to the Turkish holiday hotspot of Dalaman as well as the Spanish island of Mallorca starting in April. In May, Wizz will offer twice-weekly flights to Bourgas on the Black Sea coast of Bulgaria and to the Greek island of Crete. Including the new routes, the airline will serve 25 destinations from their Doncaster-Sheffield base which opened last October.

From April 2, 2021, Wizz Air is launching year-round service between London-Gatwick and Malaga which will operate four times weekly and twice weekly flights between London-Luton and Dalaman. The inaugural service between Luton and Dalaman will mark the first time the carrier has operated to Turkey since 2016. Today’s route announcement follows the recent opening of new bases at Gatwick, Doncaster-Sheffield and Cardiff. Wizz Air now offers service on 144 routes from 12 UK airports. In Wednesday’s announcement, Wizz Air UK’s Managing Director, Owain Jones, said,


“Although few people are able to travel at the moment, we’re looking ahead to brighter times, with today’s announcement further proof to our commitment to providing the UK with affordable, direct flights to exciting destinations. With the launch of 58 new Wizz Air UK routes this year alone, we continue to bring ever-better connectivity to the UK. In summer 2020, our customers loved our many brand new holiday routes and we’re giving them an ever greater choice of favorite sunny holiday spots for summer 2021. If you’re dreaming of a trip abroad, book ahead now to take advantage of WIZZ’s ultra-low fares and we recommend adding WIZZ Flex to all bookings for the ultimate peace of mind should plans change. We look forward to welcoming everyone back onboard to experience the great service of Europe’s greenest airline group.”
