Boryspil International Airport greeted Airbus A321neo carrying passengers from the capital of the United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi, with the water arch.

The aircarrier plans to operate flights once a week – on Saturdays. During the summer, from the end of August, the number of flights will increase up to 3 flights a week – every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday.

“The arrival of the low-cost carrier Wizz Air Abu Dhabi was made possible by the joint fruitful work of the airport and the airline. We are extremely happy that with the arrival of a new carrier new opportunities have opened up for our passengers to travel to the United Arab Emirates. Congratulations to the company on this flight and thank you for your trust”, commented Director for Aviation Business Development at Boryspil Airport Maxym Voloshyn.

Kees Van Schaick, Managing Director of Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, said: “We are thrilled to launch the route from Abu Dhabi to Kyiv Boryspil International Airport. It is a historic moment for Wizz Air Abu Dhabi and important moment for our customers in the Ukraine and the United Arab Emirates. The connection between Kyiv and Abu Dhabi will open up new opportunities for travellers to discover each of the capitals with its stunning architecture, interesting culture and amazing cuisine. Our state-of-the-art aircraft will ensure the best possible sanitary conditions for travellers, while operating with the lowest environmental footprint. We look forward to welcome passengers back on board with great service and a smile.”

Flights will be operated on modern Airbus A321neo aircrafts with ultra-low emissions, noise and fuel consumption. The Wizz Air Abu Dhabi fleet consists of four such aircraft.
