Wizz Air has decided to move its Warsaw network and operational base from F. Chopin Airport to Warsaw/Modlin in order to reduce costs. Warsaw/Modlin Airport is conveniently located north of the capital. The drive from the city center takes approximately 40 minutes. The airport will operate 24/7, every day of the week. Wizz Air will have the opportunity to develop a more flexible flight schedule, free from the restrictions that existed at the main airport. Most importantly, the costs associated with operations at Warsaw/Modlin Airport will be significantly lower, which will allow the carrier to lower ticket prices. All these factors are in line with Wizz Air’s commitment to providing customers with the best possible travel conditions while maintaining affordable prices.
Tickets are already available from 125 PLN (one way, all inclusive). To celebrate these changes, Wizz Air is offering customers a 20% discount on ticket prices for all incoming and outgoing flights operated by Warsaw/Modlin Airport, valid until February 3, 2012. Customers who have already booked tickets for flights departing from Warsaw F. Chopin Airport on or after July 18, 2012, will be notified directly of the change.
– Wizz Air is very pleased that we can lower ticket prices for passengers using the new Warsaw/Modlin Airport. We believe that our customers will welcome the savings we can now provide and will continue to fly with us after this change – said John Stephenson, Executive Vice President of Wizz Air.
– The decision of such a significant carrier to open routes from Warsaw/Modlin Airport gives us the chance to become a key transport hub in the country. At the same time, it sets the bar high. We are aware that we must meet the expectations of Wizz Air and its customers. I am convinced that we will succeed together – stated Piotr Okienczyc, President of Warsaw/Modlin Airport.
