War against Ukraine: Airline Wizz Air to suspend flights to Moldova over ‘risk’ in country’s airspace
Eastern European airline Wizz Air is to suspend flights to Moldova amid fears over aircraft safety in the country.
The airline said there was an “elevated” risk in Moldova’s air space amid increased tensions in the region. A stray missile last month flew into Moldova, which borders Ukraine as well as Romania.
Wizz Air said flights into the Moldovan capital, Chisinau, would be stopped from March 14. It said it would instead increase international routes from Iasi – the closest Romanian airport to the Moldovan border.
