NEWS FLASH
Low cost carrier Wizz Air plans to restore flights between London Luton and Sarajevo this September. The airline discontinued operations between the two cities last month. The budget carrier now plans to fly between the two capitals twice per week from September 25, each Monday and Friday. Wizz Air, which shut its Sarajevo base last November, operates only one other route from Sarajevo, with its offshoot in the United Arab Emirates maintaining flights to Abu Dhabi. Tickets for the Luton - Sarajevo service can now be purchased through the airline’s website.
Nice! Happy it's coming back but why suspend flights during the busiest time of year?
ReplyDeleteYeah literally. I would say that every flight to London had 90% LF at least so I dont know why did they cancel it at all. But considering its wizz thats normal for them...
DeleteSimply because there are more profitable routes to operate during the summer months. Most of these Wizz non-holiday routes re-open during the fall as they have spare planes to reallocate.

DeleteThey have British tourists in winter.
Anonymous 13:00 they have have canceled I in November, not in summer. I guess because TUI Airways jad a flights at that time because of winter arrangements for Bjelasnica mountain.
DeleteThat's not why
DeleteFuck this airline, I don’t trust them one bit. Would rather fly LHR-VIE-SJJ with Austrian than direct from LTN with them. I hope that the real reason they are bringing this back is because Ryanair or EasyJet are on the verge of launching LON-SJJ, I would fly them over wizz any day, even if it is more expensive.
DeleteWizz is seemingly opening routes via lottery based system - why would one suspend flights during the summer?
ReplyDeleteBecause it can use the aircraft and its crews to fly more profitable routes to Ibiza, Santorini, Dubrovnik etc.
DeleteSarajevo ♥️is not just attractive it very important destination and there need to be air bridge between UK and Sarajevo
DeleteThis means, this route cannot be subsidized ;)
ReplyDelete£540 for a return leg.. that's a though sell
ReplyDeleteAt least it is coming back although it's very sad we won't have a direct flight to Sarajevo this summer😞
ReplyDeleteI was very disappointed when they announced its stopping...hope it sustains this time round. Its not easy to change flights with kids...direct line was fantastic
When new airline is coming?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I have to flight with more expensive flights company this summer. I wish to come more companies to flight between Sarajevo and UK cities, such as Manchester and so
ReplyDeleteHope this still means Ryanair will link with SJJ and that this relaunch isnt the news many were waiting on.
ReplyDeleteI flew on the last flight before they cancelled the route and I didn’t see a single spare seat. I heard many English accents around Sarajevo in the following days so it makes so much sense to bring it back. Good for the tourist and the Bosnian community in England
ReplyDeleteWhen? 😫
