Wizzair

As of "present"! If I understood you corerctly you mean planes/maschines when you say airframes?!?

[Powerjet1]

Wizz have announced they are to fly from Wroclaw to LTN(5 x weekly) & DSA(2 x weekly)from Feb08.

New route: Budapest - Milano Bergamo

Wizzair will compete with Alitalia and Sky Europe on the Milan route.

[airhumberside]

Is BUD getting an extra aircraft, as there are other capacity increases as well? (including to Luton)

[james170969]

So far, Wizzair's routes into Scotland ( Glasgow Prestwick ) have all been from cities in Poland. What are the chances of Wizzair starting a route from Budapest to Glasgow Prestwick?

New route Budapest - Milano Bergamo

Wizzair will compete with Alitalia and Sky Europe on the Milan route.

Incredible launch price for BGY-BUD: return flight from 3 euro included tax!

[larshakan]

Did not W6 use to serve BUD-BGY in the past but pulled out because of SkyEurope?

Wizz Air(W6/Budapest) will give up its Budapest-Milan Orio al Serio route on November 8.

Cork Gdansk

Cork Gdansk unbookable from 30th September, was available untill very recently for 2007/8 Winter including an extra flight at Christmas.

Press statement from them on their Cork operations sounded very upbeat last week so it's a bit puzzling.

[kubik]

I have read that they are closing Gdansk-Cork because they will increase Poznan-London Luton up to 7 a week.

[JulietNovemberPapa]

"Cork Gdansk unbookable from 30th September"

Yeah, GDN-ORK-GDN, which is presently 3x weekly, will go to 2x weekly at the beginning of Sept. and be eliminated completely from the end of Sept.

"I have read that they are closing Gdansk-Cork because they will increase Poznan-London Luton up to 7 a week."

But POZ-LTN-POZ is already 7x weekly/1x daily.

[kubik]

So it will be more than 7x weekly.

[JulietNovemberPapa]

"So it will be more than 7x weekly."

Well yeah, if they decide to increase it.

I wonder whether C0 will operate GDN-ORK-GDN. They already fly to ORK from KRK, WAW and WRO.

[kubik]

C0 has lots of problems with other LCCs, they are going to close GDN-EDI because of easyJet's new route and they opened SZZ-EDI - maybe in stead of GDN.

[kubik]

Well yeah, if they decide to increase it.

They have already informed about it - a polish website Pasazer.com (passenger) got a statement from Wizz's spokesman:

'Yes, we have decided to suspend the Gdańsk - Cork route but we are going to inrease frequency on the Poznań - London route'

[JulietNovemberPapa]

I don't suppose you know how W9 is performing profit-wise? I can't get much information (I guess it's a private company). If you could provide some statistics I'd be very grateful.

[kubik]

It is a private company, so it is unavailable to get any information about its strategy. You should stay alert and read every information about them.

Have C0 announced yet they are axing EDI-Gdansk?

Based on their slots at EDI, Szczecin is meant to be operated with the Gdansk based aircraft that does EDI-Gdansk

Not yet, but you can easily look through its booking engine and realize that they are going to decrease and finally close this route.

I know, but they can also move one plane from GDN to SZZ or just stay there for a night.


This conversation should be moved to the Centralwings thread!

[JulietNovemberPapa]

Thanks, Kubik.

It was sometime ago, but does anyone have any definite info about W6 and its proposals for BEG?

Also, which routes have W6 eliminated? I know LTN-LJU has gone and ORK-GDN will be going.

According to Wikipedia - which isn't always accurate - it seems like Wizz Air Bulgaria is permitted to fly from Bulgaria to Turkey and Moldova. Any more information about either?

Cheers!

James.

[kubik]

There were also Katowice - MUC, AMS, TSF, SXF, LBC, GDN, BUD - but they closed them before first flight. Except BUD, they used it as a KTW-(BUD)-ATH route.
