Wizz Air Ukraine announced delivery of a new Airbus А320 aircraft to its hub at Kyiv Zhuliany Airport.
The Airbus А320 arrived in Kyiv this weekend from the Airbus factory in Toulouse, France.
Wizz Air Ukraine’s new Airbus А320 is the first aircraft equipped with sharklets delivered by Airbus to the Ukrainian market. Sharklets are an option on new-build A320 aircraft. Improving the aircraft wings’ aerodynamics, fuel consumption can be reduced by up to 4% and approximately 1,000t CO2 emissions can be saved each year. Aircraft fitted with sharklets can achieve a longer range, which will be used to accomplish Wizz Air Ukraine’s route development plan and connect Ukraine with low fares to new and more distant destinations. A steeper climb and reduced noise levels in the airport areas are further improvements on this state of the art A320. Wizz Air Ukraine already operates the most fuel efficient and greenest fleet in the Ukraine. With the delivery of the 3rd A320, the airline will continue to lead in environmental performance, save costs and lower fares even further.
