Wizz Air expands its Budapest network for Summer 2026 with 5 new routes to Greece, Spain, Bulgaria, and Poland. Discover flight schedules, start dates, and ticket prices for Kraków, Menorca, Kefalonia, and more.

Travellers flying from Hungary have more options than ever this summer. Wizz Air, Hungary’s leading low-cost carrier, has officially announced the addition of five new routes from its Budapest (BUD) base, set to launch in Summer 2026.

The expansion is fuelled by the arrival of a new Airbus A321neo aircraft to the airline’s Budapest fleet, bringing the total number of based aircraft to 19. This move significantly boosts capacity for holidaymakers looking for sunny getaways in Greece, Spain, and Bulgaria, as well as city-break enthusiasts heading to Poland.

✈️ New Wizz Air Routes from Budapest: The Full List

Starting from late April and June 2026, passengers can fly directly to these exciting new destinations. Here is the breakdown of the flight schedule:

🏖️ Destination Highlights

1. Menorca, Spain

A UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Menorca is the more tranquil sibling of Mallorca and Ibiza. Known for its turquoise coves (calas) and pine-fringed coastlines, it is the perfect destination for families and nature lovers seeking a relaxing Spanish holiday.

2. Kefalonia, Greece

Famous as the filming location for Captain Corelli’s Mandolin, Kefalonia offers dramatic landscapes, from the subterranean Melissani Lake to the world-famous Myrtos Beach. This route opens up the Ionian Islands to Hungarian travelers without the need for connecting flights.

3. Kalamata, Greece

Located in the Peloponnese, Kalamata is a gateway to ancient history (including nearby Sparta and Ancient Messene) and boasts some of the best olive oil in the world. It is an ideal spot for travelers who want a mix of culture and coastline.

4. Varna, Bulgaria

Known as the “Maritime Capital of Bulgaria,” Varna combines a vibrant city atmosphere with wide, sandy beaches along the Black Sea. It is a budget-friendly summer destination with a rich history, including the oldest gold treasure in the world.

5. Kraków, Poland

The only non-beach destination in this expansion, Kraków is a cultural heavyweight. From the Wawel Castle to the bustling Main Market Square, it is a top-tier choice for a weekend city break, offering incredible value and history.

💰 Ticket Prices and Booking Information

Wizz Air has confirmed that tickets for all five new routes are on sale now.

• Starting Fares: One-way tickets start from as low as 7,990 HUF (approx. €20–€25) for Wizz Discount Club members or early bookings.
• How to Book: Flights can be booked directly via the Wizz Air mobile app or website.

📈 Growing Capacity at Budapest Airport

This announcement reinforces Wizz Air’s commitment to the Hungarian market. By basing a 19th aircraft in Budapest, the airline is not only launching these five new routes but also increasing frequencies on existing popular connections such as Malaga, Malta, Antalya, and Yerevan.

With the summer travel season fast approaching, these new direct connections are expected to sell out quickly. Travelers are advised to book early to secure the lowest fares.
