Wizz Air launching Larnaca to Barcelona route from October

Wizz Air has announced the launch of a new route from Larnaca to Barcelona, Spain, launching this October.

Tickets go on sale starting 22 May, with one-way fares from just €49.99 (including all mandatory fees and one carry-on bag). With this expansion, Wizz Air continues to provide affordable, direct travel options from Cyprus to some of Europe’s most sought-after destinations, a press release noted.

"The addition of Barcelona marks a significant milestone for Wizz Air’s operations in Cyprus. A long-standing favourite among Cypriot travellers, Barcelona is known for its vibrant culture, iconic architecture, famous beaches and world-famous cuisine. From Gaudi’s Sagrada Família to the buzzing atmosphere of La Rambla, the city offers something for every kind of traveller and now with Wizz Air, it’s more accessible than ever," press release continued.

This announcement builds on Wizz Air’s momentum following last week’s introduction of routes to Yerevan, Armenia, and Timisoara, Romania, further strengthening the airline’s growing network out of Larnaca.

Olivia Harangozo, Corporate Communications Manager at Wizz Air, expressed her excitement about the new route additions by saying, “We’re thrilled to launch our new direct route from Cyprus to Barcelona – a destination our passengers have consistently asked for. This exciting addition reflects our ongoing commitment to Cyprus and our mission to make travel more accessible, affordable, and convenient. With its world-famous architecture, lively atmosphere, and rich cultural heritage, Barcelona is a perfect getaway – and now easier than ever to reach Wizz Air.”

Driven by its 'Customer-First Compass' programme, Wizz Air is committed to transforming the travel experience with one of the youngest, safest, and most fuel-efficient fleets in the industry," the announcement added.

"With this announcement, Wizz Air further strengthens its role as a key player in Cyprus’s aviation sector – giving travelers more destinations, better prices, and greater freedom to explore Europe," it said.

"Book your tickets quickly and easily via wizzair.com or the official WIZZ mobile app," the announcement concluded.

It is worth noting that, according to the CAPA – Centre for Aviation Awards for Excellence 2024, Wizz Air is the most environmentally sustainable airline in the EMEA region.
