WizzAir has canceled most of the planned expansion of flights from the Belgrade base for the next summer season and suspended plans to increase the number of planes in the Serbian capital, writes the ExYuAviation portal.
Of the nine new routes the company planned to launch, only two remained active, namely Sandeford and Hamburg.
The airline canceled flights to Barcelona, Lisbon, Milan, Charleroi, Cologne, Friedrichshafen and the Finnish city of Turku.
Furthermore, the carrier postponed the continuation of its flights from Salzburg, which was available during a short period last summer, before it was suspended due to travel restrictions.
WizzAir originally planned to expand its Belgrade base during the 2020 summer season with ten new routes, an additional aircraft and an upgrade of its two existing Airbus A320 aircraft to the A321.
The low-cost airline announced the expansion in mid-June last year, as countries across Europe began to ease strict measures against the spread of the virus.
However, plans were derailed because Serbia was removed from the list of countries that the EU considers epidemiologically safe, banning the entry of most Serbian citizens into European countries, Nova Ekonomija reports.
