Wizz Air, the largest low-cost airline in Central and Eastern Europe, announces three new low-fare routes to Tel Aviv.
The new routes will fly from Lublin, Poland; Craiova, Romania; and Kosice, Slovakia. They will begin from June with bi-weekly flights.
In addition, Wizz Air announced it will increase the frequency of its Bucharest to Tel Aviv flights from four a week to seven and of its Budapest to Tel Aviv flights from seven a week to 10.

Tourism Minister Yariv Levin welcomes the announcement.
““I congratulate Wizz Air on its decision to continue expanding operations in Israel and to open three new direct routes into Ben Gurion airport, joining the existing routes,” he says. “I am pleased that cooperation between the Tourism Ministry and Wizz Air has moved up a level, as the company expresses confidence in the Israeli tourism product and significantly expands its operations in Israel.”
