Wizz Air has confirmed two new routes from Cardiff Airport after pulling its base for the winter season. The Hungarian owned-airline, after launching its inaugural summer season from the Rhoose-based airport, took the decision not to continue to operate through the winter season (from later this month) with a dedicated plane and 40 cabin and pilot crew.
While Wizz Air intends to reactive its base for its summer season next spring at the Welsh Government-owned airport, staff have been redeployed to its bases at London Luton and Gatwick airports.
The twice weekly new routes from October 30th, are to the Romanian capital of Bucharest and the Italian city of Milan (Malpensa).
