Wizz Air Brings Exciting Travel Boost to Yerevan with 8 New Routes Across Europe

Wizz Air Brings Exciting Travel Boost to Yerevan with 8 New Routes Across Europe

Big news, budget travelers and spontaneous holiday-bookers: Wizz Air just made it a whole lot easier (and cheaper) to escape your routine and explore Europe—especially if you’re lucky enough to live in or near Yerevan, Armenia.

Starting October 1, 2025, Wizz Air is opening a brand-new base in Yerevan and launching not one, not two, but eight shiny new direct routes to fabulous destinations across the continent. That’s right—Armenia’s capital is officially joining the low-cost travel party, and everyone’s invited (as long as your carry-on fits the size checker).

Where Can You Fly?

Prepare your out-of-office message and start Googling “things to do in Naples,” because here’s where Wizz Air is flying you next from Yerevan:

  • Hamburg (Germany) – 3x weekly from 1 Oct
  • Prague (Czech Republic) – 3x weekly from 1 Oct
  • Nice (France) – 3x weekly from 2 Oct (yes, it’s Nice in Nice)
  • Paphos (Cyprus) – 2x weekly from 2 Oct (sun, sea, and SPF 50)
  • Naples (Italy) – 2x weekly from 15 Oct (hello pizza pilgrimage)
  • Bari (Italy) – 2x weekly from 26 Oct (because one Italian route wasn’t enough)
  • Bucharest (Romania) – 2x weekly from 28 Oct
  • Memmingen (Germany) – 2x weekly from 28 Oct (your friends may ask, “Where?”)

Flights will operate two to three times a week, which is the perfect frequency for long weekends, spontaneous adventures, or pretending you’re going on a business trip when you’re really just headed to the beach.

Yerevan, You’re Glowing

This move isn’t just a win for travelers—it’s a massive upgrade for Armenia’s aviation scene. With this new base, Yerevan is officially stepping up as a regional hub for budget travel. Think of it as the glow-up nobody saw coming (except maybe Wizz Air’s strategy team).

Not only will it boost tourism, but it’s also expected to create jobs, support the local economy, and give Armenians easier access to Europe without needing to route through 15 other airports and lose half a day in layovers.

Plus, Wizz Air hasn’t said how many planes will be permanently stationed in Yerevan, but you can bet their trusty Airbus A320s will be flying in and out with clockwork efficiency—and maybe a few dramatic landings for spice.

Wizz Air’s Master Plan (Spoiler: It Involves You Traveling More)

This is all part of Wizz Air’s master plan to expand across Eastern Europe and the Caucasus. They’ve got their eyes on the prize: connecting people who want to explore without maxing out their credit cards.

And honestly, it’s a smart move. Armenia has been flying under the radar (pun intended), and now, with new direct links to Germany, France, Italy, and beyond, it’s about to get a lot more love from curious Europeans looking for something new, authentic, and maybe a bit off the beaten path.

Final Thoughts Before You Book That Flight

Let’s break it down:

  • 8 new routes
  • Affordable fares
  • No more four-hour layovers in the middle of nowhere
  • The chance to eat Italian gelato and Armenian dolma in the same month

Whether you’re Armenian and looking to explore Europe with ease, or European and dreaming of khorovats, cognac, and some serious mountain views—this is your moment.

Wizz Air has landed in Yerevan, and takeoff is just around the corner.

Now… who’s coming to Nice with us?
