DALLAS – Today in Aviation, the Ukrainian subsidiary of the Hungarian LCC Wizz Air (W6), Wizz Air Ukraine (WU), ceased operations in 2015.
Wizz Air Ukraine commenced operations with a single Airbus A320 on July 11, 2008, from its Kyiv International Airport (IEV) base. Initially, the airline served seven domestic routes, including flights to Lviv (LWO) and Donetsk (DOK).
The latter became WU’s second base in October 2013. It launched four new international routes with a single based Airbus A320. The DOK base was closed in April 2014 following the escalating war in the Donbas region.
