The 50th aircraft has been delivered to Wizz Air’s Malta offshoot sent up just six months ago.
Wizz Air Malta operates 265 routes from Italy, Albania, Austria and Romania.
The new Airbus A321neo joining the fleet of the budget airline’s subsidiary will be based in Rome and operate on 77 routes from the Italian capital.
Wizz Air Malta was established as the fourth carrier within the Wizz Air Group alongside arms in the UK, Hungary and Air Abu Dhabi with its first flight in September 27 last year.
The airline has almost 1,500 employees and serves 96 airports in 36 countries.
Diarmuid O’Conghaile, managing director of Wizz Air Malta, said: “We are delighted to welcome a brand new A321neo to Wizz Air Malta’s fleet, which marks its 50th aircraft.
“Having started operations only six months ago, Wizz Air Malta is now operating up to 200 flights per day from 14 bases in four countries.
“We are proud to have grown so quickly and efficiently, thanks to the amazing team of 1,500 dedicated employees.
“With more aircraft and routes to come, Wizz Air Malta will continue to reinforce its strong position and expansion plans across Europe.”
