Wizz Air to launch four new flight routes from the UK

Wizz Air is about to offer Brits a wider choice of cheap flights as it prepares to expand its network from the UK.

The budget carrier has announced plans to begin operations from Edinburgh Airport later this year, with four new routes set to launch in November.

The airline will offer new routes to Warsaw and Gdansk in Poland, Budapest in Hungary and Bucharest in Romania.

Fares will start from £16.99 each way, and are now available to book on the Wizz Air website.

It's worth noting that these don't include checked luggage - you can read more on Wizz Air's cabin bag policy here .

All routes will be served by the airline's fleet including Airbus A320, A321 and A321neo aircraft.

The company says that the new routes will mean an increase in capacity of 250,000 seats in the airline's Scottish routes in 2020.

The airline already has existing routes from Scotland to Eastern Europe, with services predominantly from Aberdeen and Glasgow.

When the Edinburgh network launches later this year, it will mark 102 routes on offer for UK passengers in 27 countries.

Owain Jones, Managing Director, Wizz Air UK said: "We’re delighted to announce even more opportunities for our Scottish customers to experience Wizz Air’s low-fares on new routes connecting Edinburgh with some of Central and Eastern Europe’s most dynamic cities, flying on-board one of Europe’s youngest, most efficient aircraft fleets.

"Offering unique cultural, architectural, gastronomic and nightlife experiences, our customers travelling to Budapest, Bucharest, Gdańsk and Warsaw will also enjoy fantastic value-for-money - making pounds stretch further.

"The WIZZ team looks forward to welcoming customers old and new on-board our ultra-efficient fleet of Airbus aircraft very soon."
