Wizz Air is announcing a major increase in frequencies to Türkiye, with the introduction of nine flights a week on the Budapest-Istanbul route from March, up from the current seven flights a week.
Tickets are available on Wizz Air‘s website and through the airline’s mobile app from 15,590 HUF.
Spanning two continents, Istanbul is a unique fusion of East and West that will fascinate all visitors. Its cultural diversity, unique atmosphere and dazzling architecture give the city a unique charm. Turkey’s economic, cultural and artistic centre is home to many exciting sights and attractions. The evocative mosques, palaces and bazaars of the past, combined with the vibrant mix of the modern metropolis, make for an unforgettable trip.
“We look forward to further strengthening economic and tourism ties between the two countries with the expansion of this route. Wizz Air’s destinations in Turkey have already been popular with Hungarian travellers, so we are delighted to be able to make Istanbul even more accessible with the addition of flights to Budapest. We are committed to strengthening the aviation relations between the two countries and look forward to further developing our offerings between Hungary and Turkey in the coming period,”
said Zsuzsa Trubek, Communications Manager, Wizz Air.
