Share

Today, the very first scheduled WOW Air flight has landed at Brussels Airport. After Cobalt, WOW Air is the second new airline to offer new scheduled services to the capital of Europe.

Flight WW462 was operated with one of WOW Air’s newest A320 neo’s, Airbus A320-251N TF-NEO. The aircraft left Reykjavik (KEF) at 06:15 GMT and made a safe landing on Brussels Airport (BRU) RWY 25L at 11:22 CEST.

WOW Air will fly an Airbus A320 aircraft four times a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday & Sunday) between Brussels and Reykjavik, where connecting flights to various USA destinations will be available.

WW462 KEF-BRU (days: 1357): 06h15 – 11h35 A320
WW463 BRU-KEF (days: 1357): 12h25 – 13h50 A320

The Icelandic low cost airline WOW Air will offer cheap flights to North America from Brussels via Reykjavik, from June 2017. With a one-way ticket of 149 euros to New York or 179 euros to Los Angeles, the Nordics are revolutionising the transatlantic flights. But behind these attractive prices, many supplements are hidden and and there is a mandatory stopover in Iceland.
