What they said
Andras Szabo, Network Officer at Wizz Air, said, “With the opening of our new base at Turin Airport, we are taking a highly significant strategic step in the development of our network and making an important contribution to strengthening connectivity in Northern Italy. The arrival of two new aircraft based in the Piedmont capital represents much more than a simple operational expansion: it is a tangible investment in the region, capable not only of generating economic value and employment, but also of significantly contributing to making Turin and Piedmont increasingly accessible, dynamic, and competitive within the European landscape. We strongly believe in Turin’s potential as a city of innovation, culture, and industry, so much so that we are more than doubling the number of seats available this year for travellers to and from the city. Our goal is clear: to bring the north-west of the country closer to Europe on the one hand and to make Italy increasingly interconnected from north to south with accessible and ultra-competitive fares.”
Andrea Andorno, CEO of Torino Airport, added: “We are extremely satisfied with the investment that Wizz Air has chosen to make in Turin and with the development prospects it will bring for the airport and the region. The opening of the base, with two aircraft and the launch of new domestic and international routes, represents a strategic milestone that strengthens Piedmont’s connectivity, supports tourism and business flows, and generates significant employment benefits.”
Sixteen Wizz routes from Turin
In 2025 alone, Wizz Air operated more than 2,100 flights from Turin, handling over 450,000 passengers.
With the stationing of one A321neo and the arrival of a second on 25 October, Wizz Air’s annual capacity will increase by one million seats, with each aircraft adding 500,000 seats. In 2026, the LCC will operate a total of 16 routes to eight countries from Turin, offering nearly 1.3 million seats from the airport.
