Dubai: Wizz Air Abu Dhabi will add its first Russian destination, Moscow, to its route network.

“The UAE has long been a popular travel destination for those in Russia, and vice versa,” said Wizz Air in a statement.

The flight to Moscow will operate daily services, four times a week starting in December on Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Friday, ramping up to seven times a week in February. Fares are starting from Dh219.

The Moscow route brings Wizz Air Abu Dhabi to a total of 33 announced flight destinations, since it launched operations in January 2021.

“Today’s announcement underlines our commitment to bringing a growing number of low-fare opportunities for Russian travellers, and importantly, Wizz Air’s long-term strategic interest in the Russian market,” said József Váradi, Group CEO of Wizz Air.
