Hungarian low-cost airline Wizz Air, No. 2 on the Romanian low-cost market, carried 900,000 passengers to and from Romania last year, having reached its target, company representatives say. Wizz Air has thus secured the No. 2 position on the market by outranking MyAir and is currently in competition with Blue Air for the No. 1 spot, having a 7 million-passenger target in 2009. Blue Air transported 1.2 million passengers in 2008 and announced plans to fly 1.3-1.4 million passengers this year, with company representatives saying they would not lose the leading position. Wizz Air set out to double the number of passengers transported to and from Romania for a second year running, and intends to introduce new flights, mainly departing from Timisoara. Timisoara will be the company’s third hub in Romania, after Bucharest and Cluj, with Wizz Air to fly from here to Paris, Dortmund, London, Venice, Milan, Rome, Barcelona and Valencia.
