Wizz Air Lands Big in Podgorica 2026

Wizz Air Lands Big in Podgorica 2026: Montenegro’s About to Get a Whole Lot Busier

Hold onto your boarding passes, Montenegro — because Wizz Air just dropped some major travel news! Europe’s favorite purple-clad low-cost carrier is setting up its 36th base in Podgorica come March 2026, and let’s just say it’s bringing the party (and two shiny new Airbus A321neo aircraft) with it.

This isn’t just another airport update — it’s a full-blown aviation glow-up for Montenegro’s capital. With 14 brand-new routes ready for takeoff, Wizz Air is connecting Podgorica to more major European cities than ever before, adding over one million extra seats each year. Translation: way more options for spontaneous weekend getaways, business trips that sound suspiciously like vacations, and new excuses to “work remotely” from a beach café.

The Routes That Dreams Are Made Of

So, where can you jet off to from Podgorica’s soon-to-be-bustling tarmac? Wizz Air’s new destinations read like a European travel wish list:
Basel Mulhouse, Paris, Baden–Baden, Cologne, Hamburg, Rome, Maastricht, Barcelona, Ljubljana, Malmö, Gdansk, Poznan, Rzeszow, and Wroclaw.

From romantic strolls along the Seine to tapas marathons in Barcelona, this lineup is pure travel temptation. It’s the kind of list that makes even the most devoted homebody start checking their passport’s expiration date.

Podgorica’s Big Moment

Until now, Podgorica has often been the quiet achiever of Balkan capitals — charming, scenic, and just under the radar. But not anymore. With Wizz Air setting up shop, it’s officially leveling up from “that place you pass through on the way to the coast” to a full-fledged European aviation hub.

The addition of two brand-new Airbus A321neos (you know, the sleek, fuel-efficient ones that make even budget travel feel fancy) means more flights, more comfort, and more connections than ever before. These planes are set to become the pride of Montenegro’s skies — or at least the most Instagrammed.

Good News for Travelers (and Montenegro’s Economy)

For travelers, this expansion means one thing: more choice at lower prices. Whether you’re itching for a weekend in Rome, craving waffles in Belgium, or curious about where exactly Baden-Baden is (spoiler: it’s lovely), Wizz Air has your back — and your boarding pass.

But it’s not just jet-setters who are celebrating. This move is a huge win for Montenegro’s tourism and economy too. More routes mean more visitors, more jobs, and a serious boost to local businesses. Expect hotels to fill up, restaurants to get busier, and taxi drivers to develop new levels of small-talk expertise.

Wizz Air’s European Takeover Continues

Wizz Air’s expansion streak shows no signs of slowing down. The airline is continuing its quest to paint Europe purple, base by base, and Podgorica is its latest lucky landing spot. With a growing fleet of next-gen aircraft and a knack for making travel accessible (and dare we say, fun), Wizz Air is proving that low-cost doesn’t have to mean low excitement.

Ready for Takeoff

Come March 2026, Podgorica’s departure boards are going to look a whole lot more exciting — and travelers will have 14 new reasons to fall in love with flying. Whether you’re planning a romantic escape to Paris, a cultural deep dive in Rome, or just chasing sunshine in Barcelona, Wizz Air’s got you covered.

So pack your bags, polish your passport, and start practicing your “sorry, I’m out of office” face — because Montenegro’s skies are about to get very busy, very soon.
