Wizz Air will serve this route twice a week, strengthening Memmingen’s position as a central low-cost airport for Eastern Europe.
New connection with Wizz Air

Yerevan is still considered an insider tip among travelers, but it offers a variety of sights and museums. The city could become an attractive new destination for tourists, as well as commuters and business people.
