What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Wizz Air began a twice-weekly direct flight link from Granada to London on October 21, 2026. This move re-established a direct air link between the province of Granada and the British capital, filling a gap left by Vueling. Vueling's previous service to Gatwick had concluded its summer season with average occupancy figures of around 90 per cent.
