Wizz Abu Dhabi will resume flights to Russia from October 3, despite global warnings

Wizz Abu Dhabi has confirmed it will resumes its flights to Russia from October 3, despite the war in Ukraine.

The budget airline says ‘passenger demand’ is the main reason behind putting Russia back on their destination list.

“Wizz Air Abu Dhabi is a national UAE carrier that operates in line with the UAE’s national regulations and policies…
The airline is resuming its operation to Moscow to meet travel demand for passengers wishing to fly to and from Russia from the UAE capital…
All UAE national airlines are currently operating direct flights to Russia...
Wizz Air Hungary and Wizz Air UK are not currently operating flights to Russia.”

As the war in Ukraine moves into its sixth month, countries around the world continue to condemn Russia’s atrocities.

Immediately following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, international businesses boycotted the country and world leaders economically isolated them from the global stage.

Most sanctions against Russia are still in place and will remain that way until Russia ceases its war in Ukraine.
