The newest flights departing to Antalya and Berlin, along with several other eagerly awaited holiday destinations such as Milan, Malta and Dubrovnik, which will be launched in May, underline our commitment to expanding our network and offering affordable travel options.”

The President of the Cluj County Council, Mr. Alin Tişe stated on this occasion: "The expansion of Wizz Air operations at Cluj International Airport and the introduction of the two routes to Antalya and Berlin, once again confirm the strategic position of the Cluj airport as well as the attractiveness of Cluj County for major air operators. The new destinations will significantly contribute to the development of tourism, to the facilitation of business connections and to the increase of the mobility of citizens from Cluj and the entire North-West region of Romania. The performance of Cluj International Airport remains at a European level and we will continue to support projects that consolidate Cluj's position as a regional hub of mobility and economic development."
Mr. Viorel Federiga, President of the Board of Directors of Cluj International Airport, he also wanted to specify: "Cluj International Airport's partnership with Wizz Air is expanding and we are delighted that these two new routes will improve Cluj's international connectivity. This achievement comes as a result of the status acquired by Cluj International Airport over the last two decades, namely – a model of best practices and a reference airport in South-Eastern Europe."
Mr. David Ciceo, Director General of Avram Iancu Cluj International Airport, sent the following: "Expanding the route network remains a permanent concern of the airport management, and our collaboration for over 19 years with Wizz Air has always been oriented towards offering our passengers multiple travel options. We are pleased with the airline's decision to introduce seasonal regular flights to Antalya for the first time, because this destination has been a leader in the top holiday destinations over the years. At the same time, the resumption of flights to Berlin - previously operated between 2016 and 2024 - responds to a real market demand, facilitating both mobility for tourist purposes and the development of economic and cultural relations."
