Wizz Air eyes Skopje - Bratislava service

Wizz Air expected to launch Skopje - Bratislava flights next summer

Low cost carrier Wizz Air plans to launch flights from Skopje Alexander the Great Airport to Bratislava next year, according to the "Slovak Aviation" portal. The aviation website notes that services will begin next summer season, with the new route to be announced shortly. The Slovak capital is just fifty kilometres east of Vienna, with shuttle busses running between the two airports. Austria is home to a sizable Macedonian diaspora, while Vienna is Skopje Airport's third busiest route following Istanbul and Zurich. Wizz Air itself has still not commented or confirmed the route launch. According to the portal, besides Skopje, the airline will also fly from Sofia to Bratislava. Wizz Air last operated from the Slovak capital in 2010, when it suspended its four weekly flights to Rome.

The Managing Director of Bratislava Airport, Ivan Trhlik, said in August that flights between Bratislava and Skopje will launch by March 2016. He did not discuss the service in further detail, leaving out which carrier would operate the route. At the time, Ryanair's intention to launch flights to Skopje were linked to Mr Trhlik's statement, as the airline opened its 71st base in the city this March. However, "Slovak Aviation" writes, "Flights to Skopje will run two times per week and will operate with a Skopje-based aircraft". The portal notes that the low cost carrier aims for the route to primarily serve Macedonians living in Austria. Due to its costs, few no-frills airlines fly to Vienna.

Wizz Air introduced thirteen new routes from the former Yugoslavia from four different cities and opened its third base in the region this year. In Macedonia, it based its third aircraft in Skopje and introduced five new routes from the capital. In addition, the airline inaugurated one seasonal and one year-long service from the country’s second international airport - Ohrid. During the first three quarters, Wizz Air was Skopje's busiest airline, handling 49% of all passengers. The low cost carrier will launch flights from Belgrade to Baden-Baden next summer, its first newly announced route from the former Yugoslavia for 2016.

      Wizz in BTS is a challenge to Ryan and Easy (in VIE). If they don't respond aggressively, W6 will continue expanding further into U2 and FR turf. They can't pretend to ignore them any more.

    Hmm... Wizz Air's market share in Macedonia is unhealthy. There is no way they will ever operate flights out of Macedonia and pay the fees that other operators must pay. Which is fine if authorities are happy to do so and avoid any penalties under European regulations. Otherwise, imagine the scenario whereby SKP/OHD are negotiating with Wizz Air and they threaten to exit the market. That's over 50% of the Macedonian market under threat, not a good hand for Macedonian side.

    If Ryanair were to enter the market this scenario would be significantly less likely to happen.

      And now, the truth:

      Wizz Air is already paying full fees at SKP for all routes except new, previously unserved ones. This has always been the case.

      What you have just described is Air Serbia in BEG regarding fees and Ryanair in ZAD regarding negotiating tactics.

      Air Serbia doesn't pay anything.
      The airport is owned by the government and istead of paying direct subsidies to JU from Serbian budget they instead let JU use BEG for free.
      BEG increased the charges on all other airlines to make the difference in revenue.

      Not true.

      Air Serbia is not paying to BEG as "investment" of Republic of Serbia in Air Serbia.

      In same time Republic of Serbia did give 70 million EUR of subventions in 2014. That 70 million + no paying in BEG + all debts to Republic of Serbia + more subvention in 2015.

    Ovo je OT, ali svakako ima posljedice na našu regiju, posebno što će prva Eurowingsova baza izvan Europe biti upravo u Beču (od 11. do 3 mjeseca otvaraju: Alicante, Barcelonu, Bastiu, Düsseldorf, Faro, Hamburg, Hanover, London-Stansted, Palma de Mallorcu, Rome-Fiumicino i Valenciu

    CITYLINE DOBIVA ŠIROKOTRUPCE

    Lufthansa je zainteresirana da preko svog novog low-cost prijevoznika Eurowingsa pokrene letove long-haul letove iz Berlina. Eurowingsom se Lufthansa nastoji boriti protiv Ryanaira i easyJeta na letovima unutar Europe po uzoru na Air France-KLM (Transavia) i British-Iberiu (Vueling). No, za razliku od ostala dva prijevoznika EUB3 Lufthansin Eurowings će već od samog početka krenuti sa dva long-haul zrakoplova, koji će već ove zime letjeti na Kubu, Dominikansku Repuliku, Dubai, Bangkok i Phuket. Karsten Muehlenfeld, CEO Berlinskih aerodroma već je najavio da iako zbog kašnjenja otvaranja BBA imaju problema sa slotovima da će ipak pronači nekoliko praznih termina za long-haul letove Eurowingsa.

    No, ono što je mene šokiralo je da je Lufthansina regionalna kompanija Cityline dobila prvi širokotrupac A340-300 od Lufthanse, te će ih još 13 dobiti tijekom 2016. Prvi long-haul letovi će im biti za:

    Panama City, Panama (od 16.11.2015.)
    Cancun, Meksiko (od 8.12.2015.)
    Male, Maldivi (od 9.12.2015.)
    Port Louis, Mauricius (od 10.12.2015.)
    Philadephia, SAD (od 17.12.2015.)
    Montreal, Kanada (od 13.5.2016.)
    San Jose, SAD (od 30.6.2016.)

    I sad, potpuno razumijem logiku da Eurowings kreće sa long-haul low-cost letovima kao odgovor MEB3 i Norwegianu, ali kakva logika je da regionalna kompanija koja leti sa Embraerima i CRJ kreće sa long-haul letovima????

      Bez obzira što će letovi iz Berlina biti udarac na easyJetovu bazu u Berlinu i najavu Ryanaira za otvaranje baze u Berlinu, long-haul letovi iz Berlina pokazuju da ovaj projekt prvenstveno jest udarac na Air Berlin.

      Eurowings će svoju najveću bazu imati u Dusseldorfu gdje kreću sa 34 linije i gdje je easyJet prisutan simbolično sa tek dvije linije, a Ryanair niti ne leti. Potom će ekpanzija krenuti i na Berlin, gdje će imati i long-haul letove, ali ne na njegovu LCC zračnu luku Schonefeld, nego na Tegel. Schonefeld je baza easyJeta a biti će i Ryanaira, no Air Berlin je baziran na Tegelu. Uz to baze Eurowingsa će biti i Hamburg, te Beč, gdje Air Berlin ima svoje baze (Hamburg baza Air Berlina, Beč baza njihovog subsidiariesa NIKI-a.

      Sve ovo nisu dobre vijesti za posrnuli Air Berlin, a očito je Lufthansa odlučila prvo počistiti u svom dvorištu i eliminirati neposrednu nacionalnu konkurenciju (pri čemu mislim na širu regiju: Austriju i Švicarsku gdje je Air Berlin u svojoj ekspanziji kupio NIKI i belair, a Lufthansa Austrian i Swiss). Air Berlin u Njemačkoj, Švicarskoj i Austriji svakako jest ozbiljna prijetnja Lufthansi preuzimanjem od strane Etihada. U kombinaciji sa Etihadovim preuzimanjem Alitalije i Air Serbije ova opasnost još je bitno veća.

      Pitam se treba li u tom kontekstu gledati i pregovore hrvatske vlasti sa Lufthansom oko preuzimanja Croatie, te možemo li očekivati da će Lufthansa preko Eurowingsa napasti na Etihad u Njemačkoj, Švicarskoj i Austriji, a preko Croatie (Eurowings Croatia i CityLine Croatia) na Air Serbiu? Potom bi bilo logično da preko Dolomita (Lufthansa Regional specijaliziran za feeding talijanskih sekundarnih zračnih luka), te otvaranjem baze Eurowingsa prvenstveno u Milanu (sjetimo se projekta Lufthansa Italy), ali kasnije i u Rimu, Lufthansa napadne i samu Alitaliju.

      The Berlin expansion you are talking about has more to do with AB's decision to concentrate more on DUS rather than on TXL. In a way, this is AB's way of saying that they are giving up and pulling out of Berlin (at least as far as their hub goes).

      Berlin might be the capital of Germany but at the same time it has been notoriously low-yielding, especially when it comes to long-haul flying. One of the reasons why LH wants to have Eurowings flying out of there could also be a way to prevent Norwegian from entering the German long-haul market. They've had a lot of success in the UK and Germany would be the next logical move. Though one could argue the same for Paris given AF's current state.

      I think at this point it's safe to assume that Air Berlin is as good as dead. The airline is kept on life support by Etihad and I highly doubt there will be some improvement in the long-run especially since they are being attacked from all sides. Mind you, Ryanair is also after Air Berlin. AB was struggling in normal circumstances, God knows what will happen now.

      As far as OU goes, the only way I see it happening is if the Croatian government is ready to allow the replacement of OU by Eurowings. Truth be told, I doubt OU could survive without a bigger player- the same way Jat needed one.

      As far as Serbia goes, I am certain that at some point Eurowings will expand in Belgrade. I wouldn't be surprised to see flights from Dusseldorf and Berlin being among the first ones to be launched. Lufthansa will surely want to take away Air Serbia's monopoly in these highly lucrative markets.
      In addition to Lufthansa we also have Wizz Air which is not giving up in Belgrade.

      People have been complaining about airlines leaving Belgrade but I think this is only temporary and things will change as European airlines stabilise after years of economic hardship.

      Namjee, you forget that historically LH was not able to fly into neither West nor East Berlin airports until German reunification as routes were reserved for foreign "Allies airlines" only. Once they were granted rights they already had established their sizeable main hubs in FRA and MUC (yes higher yields there) so TXL just became a secondary and much smaller hub. In the last years they swapped almost all LH traffic with 4U, hence now it is only a 4U hub.

      AB used the underserved market in Berlin wisely and grew fast at TXL.

      Btw, the "Eurowings Austria" divison costs will be very well under 20% of the costs of LH mainline. Recently I read a rough estimate of 40% if I remember correctly. If you were referring to the "Eurowings Germany" division, then -15% or -20% could be possible.

      Yes, I was referring to the German one. I am not that familiar with the developments in Austria.

      As far as Berlin goes, of course, I know that but the Berlin Wall fell more than two decades ago and the market has dramatically changed since then. The market is there , no doubt about that and it was always more compatible with airlines such as AB than LH- hence why the transition to 4U. That's why it's kind of catastrophic that AB failed to make it work.
      The thing is that AB lacks a concise business strategy and I fear that it might be too late for some soul-searching now.

    If Wizz Air does launch flights from Bratislava to Bucharest, Belgrade, Sofia and Skopje then the next logical step would be to open a base at BTS.
    In addition to the four destinations they could also launch Luton, Larnaca and even a few other western destinations. One advantage they would have is the incomparably cheaper costs than their competition operating out of Austria.

    Larnaca would be a great move for them as there are roughly 7,000 Slovaks living on the island and several airlines used to operate between these two cities: Air Slovakia, Slovak Airlines, SkyEurope, CSA...

      I do not agree.

      ASL has different type of passengers than WZZ. At first ASL wanted WZZ out and take their pax but with ASL prices it's not possible.

      Now somebody will argue that prices in WZZ are not that less which is true if you buy ticket few days ahead.

      Majority of WZZ pax plan well ahead and buy minimum fare tickets.

      Hopefully someone will realize that giving LCAs normal fares which reflect service they receive on BEG is only positive for business. Even ASL can benefit from this as they heavily count on transfer pax which in a way they can obtain from LCA.

      Ја сам већ неколико пута написао да и даље не схватам зашто Визер не лети из Београда за Праг. Тржиште је огромно посебно када се екскурзије узму у обзир. Два лета недељно би била више него довољна, евентуално три током лета и око новогодишњих празника.
      Ако би се ови летови реализовали живо ме занима како би ЈУ одреаговао. Нема се довољно А319 да би заменили Атр тако да им преостаје цена и број недељних учесталости што би им и био главни адут.
      Мада, на крају крајева, Визер би примарно одузео путнике од аутобуских компанија, не толико од ЈУ.

    Not quite I told you so, but I've argued here for flights to BTS for some time (INI, to be exact).
    This was a 'no brainer' in my opinion given the airports relative proximity to Vienna compared to other LCC airports in Europe. (Oslo Torp, anyone ?).
    And for some ranting yesterday, it was INI-BTS that would take traffic from Air Serbia.

      Following the CityJet Sukhoi deal, i wouldn't be surprised in any Western or other company from a country with different interests purchasing the Superjet. It would be a great addition for JU, better than the A319, as it would enable opening new routes with less risks while operating the current ones with lower losses and would fit perfectly between the Atr and the A320.

      I am also sure that the performance shown by newer generation Russian fighter jets in Syria will help bring build trust in Sukhoi worldwide.

Considering successful summer and launch of SYD and ADL, it is going to be interesting to see if QR steps up in ZAG in terms of seats, either in frequency increase or a/c upgrade maybe to daily 321 .

      Not only Aegean but other airlines have been adding capacity to Athens like crazy. The other day Swiss sent two A321s with a 30 minute difference from ZRH to ATH. Also, TK has introduced widebodies on two daily flights and what's interesting is that these are set to stay even during the winter.

      Also, it's worth mentioning that Aegean has doubled its A321 fleet since last year. That's quite a lot of seats, especially when you take into consideration the fact that they are mostly flying out of ATH.

      If JU is reducing Greece then it's because they failed to make it work, not because the market is not there.
