Wizz Air Hungary Restarts Abu Dhabi Flights

Wizz Air Hungary is relaunching Abu Dhabi flights from Larnaca on November 15 and from Sofia on November 17, 2025.

Wizz Air Hungary (IATA: W6) confirmed it will restart services to Abu Dhabi (AUH) from Larnaca (LCA) on 15 November 2025 and from Sofia (SOF) on 17 November 2025, operating Airbus A321ceo and A321neo equipment. The relaunch restores direct connections between Cyprus/Bulgaria and the UAE after a short gap in services.

What this means for Abu Dhabi flights

The move comes just over two months after the closure of the Wizz Air Abu Dhabi joint venture and signals a strategic shift back toward core European operations. Routes previously flown under the now-defunct UAE air operator certificate (AOC) will return to the EU-based carrier’s network, simplifying regulatory oversight and fleet deployment.

Wizz Air Hungary will operate the reinstated links on narrow-body A321 variants, allowing single-aisle economics on medium-haul sectors while offering commonality across the carrier’s fleet. The airline has not published flight numbers or frequencies yet; passengers should check Wizz Air’s booking channels for timetable updates and seat availability.

Key restart details: Abu Dhabi flights resume Larnaca → Abu Dhabi on 15 November 2025 and Sofia → Abu Dhabi on 17 November 2025.
Operator: Wizz Air Hungary (IATA: W6).
Aircraft: Airbus A321ceo and A321neo.

For travelers and regional carriers, the relaunch restores capacity between the Eastern Mediterranean/Balkans and the Gulf, and reflects Wizz Air’s broader priority to consolidate European operations after its short-lived Abu Dhabi joint venture. Watch for official schedule postings and any further fleet or frequency announcements as the carrier finalizes the rota.
