The low-cost airline company Wizz Air will launch a new direct route from Sofia to Tirana, Albania, Radio Bulgaria announces in the Albanian language. The flights will start from December 18, 2023 and will be three times a week – Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
There are currently no direct flights between the two Balkan capitals.
