Budpaest Airport has welcomed the arrival of Wizz Air’s debut flight from Madeira.
The low-fare carrier operated its first flight between the hubs on Sunday 30 October with the twice-weekly service from Budapest to Funchal due to operate year round.
“Madeira is a stunning location, known for its namesake wine and warm, subtropical climate. It’s a perfect tourist market to add to our route network,” said Balazs Bogats, Head of Airline Development at Budapest Airport. “Wizz Air will be operating flights on Thursdays and Sundays, which will be ideal for those wising tho visit the island for a long weekend to discover the charming towns and incredible lava rocks, while the Madeirans can now also uncover the numerous delights of our own capital city in Budapest.”
The airline’s A321s will be used to operate the service with the Hungarian carrier offering nearly 90,000 one-way seats to 51 destinations during the W22/23 season.
