There is in fact a relatively substantial Hungarian population in the Doncaster and surrounding areas. I believe it to pre-date the increase of the Polish nationals moving to the UK of more recent times. I presume Wizzair will have completed sufficient enough market research to at least see it fit for them to give the route a go.
As for the Lublin and Kosice routes being "axed", a reminder that they were discontinued due to Wizzair closing down those bases.
