First Airbus A321neo aircraft landed in AUH
Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, the new national airline of the United Arab Emirates celebrates the arrival of its first advanced new Airbus A321neo aircraft to Abu Dhabi International Airport.
Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, the joint-venture established between ADQ, one of the region’s largest holding companies, and Wizz Air Holdings, has recently received national carrier status from the UAE government subject to meeting regulatory standards prior to starting operations.
The A321neo aircraft has pioneered and incorporated the latest technologies, including its new generation engines and the industry’s reference cabin design, delivering 20 percent fuel cost savings alone.
More ultra-modern Airbus A321neo aircraft, all with the unique Abu Dhabi livery will join the Wizz Air Abu Dhabi fleet in the first six months of operations, creating ever more low fare travel opportunities, and connecting the UAE capital with several other cities around Europe and beyond.
“Wizz Air Abu Dhabi’s new state-of-the-art Airbus A321neo aircraft, as well as our enhanced protective measures, will ensure the best possible sanitary conditions for travellers,” commented Kees Van Schaick, Managing Director, Wizz Air Abu Dhabi.
“The establishment of Wizz Air Abu Dhabi and its commencement of operations is a milestone in the growth and development of the LCC market in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi,” noted Mohammed Husain Ahmed, General Manager, Abu Dhabi International Airport.
