With this new destination, we are further expanding travel opportunities for our passengers, improving the capital’s connectivity to Northern Europe and offering the Italian market direct access to a dynamic and attractive city like Tallinn. We are committed to continuing to invest in Rome, offering an ever-expanding network, low fares, and an enhanced travel experience thanks to our modern Airbus A321neo fleet. Let’s Wizz, Rome!

Wizz Air’s addition of Tallinn to our network opens up new opportunities for tourism and for economic and cultural relations between Italy and Estonia.”
Wizz Air is Italy’s second-largest airline

In 2026, the LCC will offer over 9.1 million seats from Rome FCO, a 22.5% increase compared to last year, further consolidating the airport’s role as a strategic hub within the airline’s network and where it is the second-largest carrier with a 14.4% market share.
Wizz Air will continue to expand its network from Rome this summer with the launch of new international routes to the Baltics and Northern Europe, Central and Eastern Europe, and key Mediterranean destinations.
The airline is also significantly increasing frequencies and capacity on some of Rome’s most popular routes, such as Palma de Mallorca, Valencia, Malaga, Ibiza, Bilbao, Alicante, Corfu and Santorini, in response to strong leisure demand. At the same time, Wizz Air is strengthening frequencies to Budapest, Krakow, Gdansk, Sofia and Lampedusa this summer.
