Košice Airport launching new route to Bristol

The Hungarian low-cost airline Wizz Air is to launch a new link between Košice and Bristol in the UK, TASR found out on Wednesday. The new air link will be launched this Saturday (October 10) and will become the eighth regular connection from Košice Airport. Wizz Air already offers three destinations from its Slovak base in Kosice - London Luton, Milan Bergamo and Doncaster Sheffield (UK). The new route, which was announced in August, will involve two flights per week - on Tuesdays and Saturdays. According to Wizz Air, this new connection will bring passengers from eastern Slovakia the opportunity of discovering southwest England and will also attract visitors to Slovakia's second largest city, thereby stimulating tourism and trade between the two countries.
