Low-cost Hungarian operator Wizz Air, which entered the local market last year, has stated its intention to provide transport services for one million passengers, to and from Romania in 2008, by increasing the number of weekly flights. Wizz Air, which operates 25 weekly flights at present, has estimated it will transport 500,000 passengers this year. "The low cost air travel market in Romania is in the early stages of development, so there is a lot of room for expansion. However, this does not mean it is easy to enter the market and become one of the top competitors. People still need to be educated about aeroplane travel," said Natasa Kazmer, Director of Corporate Communications & Public Affairs at Wizz Air. Representatives of the Hungarian company say the company intends to become leader of the local low-cost market in 2008. Rival airline operator Blue Air, which is currently the market leader; has estimated it will transport 800,000 passengers this year, twice as many as last year.
