what the hell, 10 euros? That's like 13 bucks in Aussie dollars. Since when have airline tickets been so cheap over there. I have no idea how that would be profitable at all for the airline company.

Nevertheless, if it's true, then that's definitely good news.

Actually,it is not 10 euros Egejska. It says that the lowest price for one way ticket will start from 9,99 euros without airport taxes.
And it will be profitable for the airline company because the state will subsidize the difference.
Anyway, I was reading couple of weeks ago that the 2 way ticket will cost,more or less (probaly more: )around 75 euros.But that is still more than acceptable price!

As long as they don't compromise safety like they did in 1992 why not.But 13 bucks ian't that a bit low??I find airlines that are doing this must be compromising something whether its maintenance etc.You just wait in the event of a breakdown.But you ;ook at the amount of subsidy is quite a bit i wonder if the govt will honor it.

George S. , the following 3 years the state will give 306mil. mkd to Wizz Air as a subvention. That's why the ticket price is this low.

I think pilots should be paid a shitload more money than a taxi driver and aircraft should be serviced by highly trained technicians and engineers operating from maintenance facilities in 1st world countries...not sure how much the 20 euro fare goes to creating a 'safe' flying experience in this case...???

I would rather walk than risk my life with those sort of operators...
