A convenient hub for Ukrainians

Sucyavsky Airport is rapidly becoming a key hub for residents of the border regions of Ukraine, particularly Chernivtsi, Ivano-Frankivsk, and Khmelnytskyi.

Thanks to regular bus connections with Chernivtsi and its proximity to the Porubne checkpoint, the airport can be reached in less than an hour.

An alternative to Polish and Moldovan airports

The expansion of the Wizz Air network from Suceava is a viable alternative to flights from Poland or Moldova, which are often overcrowded and expensive.

Wizz Air's low-cost flights, the airport's convenient location, and quick border crossing make Suceava an increasingly attractive option for Ukrainian travelers.

Good to know: tickets for new destinations are already available on the Wizz Air website. Book in advance to take advantage of the lowest prices.
