Wizz adds six routes from new Doncaster Sheffield base

Wizz Air UK is expanding its recently launched base at Doncaster Sheffield airport with the addition of a second Airbus A320 aircraft and six new routes.

The new services will link the Yorkshire airport to Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Tenerife, Lisbon and Eindhoven from October 22.

Tickets are on sale from £17.99 one way.

Owain Jones, managing director of Wizz Air UK, said: “Customers old and new have given us a very clear message – they love the choice of new destinations to which they can travel with Wizz Air UK from our new base at Doncaster Sheffield.

“So less than three weeks after we announced the base, we’re delighted to celebrate the addition of a second Airbus A320 and six new routes.”

Chris Harcombe, director of aviation development at the airport, added: “The swift addition of a second aircraft from Europe’s greenest airline shows the confidence of Wizz Air that we can deliver a shared intention to provide affordable travel through ultra-low fares to people in the north east of the Pennines, creating new routes to popular leisure destinations for our customers across Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire.”

Earlier today, the airline said it may have to ground part of its fleet during winter because of travel restrictions across Europe.
