The first passengers to fly on a new route linking Malta with Romania's second most populous city were given a special welcome at Malta International Airport yesterday evening.
Wizz Air passengers flying from Cluj-Napoca were welcomed by hosts dressed in traditional Maltese costume and treated to a cake-cutting ceremony.
The airline will be flying between the Romanian city and Malta every Wednesday and Sunday. It already flies between Malta and Romanian capital Bucharest.
This new route marks Malta International Airport’s first connection to the region of Transylvania, which is surrounded by the spectacular Carpathian Mountains and sought for its scenic landscapes and medieval towns.
