New Airline Routes to Ukraine, Germany, Croatia & Macedonia

Last week Ukrainian airline, AeroSvit, the biggest in the country, launched its new route between London’s Gatwick Airport and Kiev.  The airline will be flying five times a week to the Ukrainian capital, catering for both leisure and business travellers.  It is hoped that once travellers land in Kiev they will visit other regions such as Frankovsk, Lugansk and Odessa.  It is expected that around 65,000 passengers will fly from Gatwick to Kiev this year on the new AeroSvit route.

Since BAA sold Gatwick Airport to to Global Infrastructure Partners it has gained no less than 18 new routes including airberlin flight to Hamburg and Nuremburg.  easyJet has also launched a new route from London Gatwick to Zagreb this year – the airline’s third route between London and Croatia.

However, Wizz Air attempts to maintain its premier position as the number one airline carrier from London to Eastern Europe, this year opening a new route to the Macedonian capital, Skopje.  This brings the number of Wizz Air routes from London Luton to the region to 23.

So, it looks like if you want to travel to the region there’s never been more flexibility!  Long may it continue!
