Wizz Air is launching a new direct route from Stockholm Arlanda Airport for the summer 2026 program, this time to Tirana in Albania. The new route will operate four times a week, starting on March 2, 2026.
As one of the fastest growing airlines in Europe, Wizz Air continues to invest in the Swedish market by adding Tirana, Albania, to its total offering from Stockholm Arlanda Airport. This is the fourth route Wizz Air operates from the airport, further strengthening Stockholm's accessibility to Eastern Europe.
–Wizz Air's investment shows strong confidence in the Swedish aviation market. We see a high demand for travel to and from Sweden and the new direct route is an important part of further strengthening accessibility, says Charlotte Ljunggren, Director of Marketing and Sales at Swedavia. Swedavia's primary goal is to enable people to meet, whether for business, leisure or to visit family and friends, and Wizz Air plays an important role in this.
“The new route between Stockholm and Tirana demonstrates our continued commitment to offering passengers convenient and affordable travel options,” says Salvatore Gabriele Imperiale, Head of Communications at Wizz Air. Through our Customer First Compass program, we continue to put travelers at the center and ensure a smooth, enjoyable journey from booking to arrival. We are excited to expand our network in Northern and Eastern Europe by creating a direct link between Sweden and the vibrant capital of Albania. The new route will provide more opportunities for Swedish travelers to explore Tirana’s historic squares, lively festivals and surrounding natural beauty, while welcoming Albanian passengers to discover Stockholm’s stunning landscapes and Nordic charm. We are grateful for the growing number of travelers choosing Wizz Air and with many more exciting destinations in sight, we say: Let’s Wizz!
