Wizz Air, the largest low-cost airline in Central and Eastern Europe, today announced it will add operations from Kaunas to complement its Lithuanian offer of low-cost services. From 29 March, the airline will start operating a new service to London Luton from the newest WIZZ airport in Kaunas with five weekly flights.

With an initial seat capacity of 93,000 seats the new route is expected to stimulate the aviation and hospitality sectors in Lithuania, while allowing Kaunas passengers to travel on WIZZ’s low fares to the United Kingdom. Tickets on Wizz Air’s new Kaunas route are already on sale and can be booked from only EUR 29.99*.

Since its first flight from Vilnius in 2011, Wizz Air carried nearly three million Lithuania passengers, becoming the leading airline at Vilnius International Airport. Underlining its commitment to the country, WIZZ recently added Palanga to its low fare route network and with the new Kaunas service, now offers 25 routes to 13 countries from its three Lithuanian airports.
