Wizz Air has announced the launch of flights from Katowice Airport to the capital of Armenia: Yerevan. The first flight is scheduled to happen on 29 April 2023 (Saturday). The route will be available twice a week: initially every Wednesday and Saturday, and on every Wednesday and Sunday from mid-June. The route will be available during the year.
“We are glad that Wizz Air keeps developing its network at Katowice Airport. We will be the only regional airport in Poland with flights to the capital of Armenia. It must be emphasized that it is the second Wizz Air route from Katowice Airport to the Caucasus. Since May 2013, the carrier offers flights from our airport to Kutaisi, Georgia. I am certain that flights to Yerevan will be popular, for example, among Armenians living and working in Poland,” said Artur Tomasik, the President of the Board of The Upper Silesian Aviation Group (GTL SA), the company managing Katowice Airport.
