The Romanian low-cost airline Blue Air plans to focus more on warm water routes from Bucharest, Cluj and Iaşi in the 2022 summer flight schedule. The focus will be on destinations in Croatia, Greece and Spain. "Over the past two years, the freedom to fly has been taken away from all of us and flying has only been affordable for a small group of people flying to a limited number of destinations," said Chief Commercial Officer Krassimir Tanev, formerly Managing Director of the defunct Level Europe. "At Blue Air, we believe the worst times are over and, looking at booking trends, our customers expect the prohibitive restrictions to be lifted by April." Blue Air plans to serve around 2022 routes in summer 115. By comparison, there were 2019 routes in summer 71. The weekly seat capacity is to be increased by around 72 percent. The growth is to be achieved primarily with new Boeing 737 Max 8s. There are currently five in the fleet of 20 aircraft. Additional B737 Max 8s are to be taken over in the course of this year. From Bucharest, the destinations Zaragoza, Santorini, Thessaloniki, Tenerife South, Split, Skiathos, Seville, Porto, Palma de Mallorca, Ibiza, Düsseldorf, Dubrovnik, Corfu, Chania, Bordeaux, Bilbao and Alicante are to be added during the summer period of 2022. Most routes are to be served twice a week. Five rotations are planned to Düsseldorf and three weekly to Santorini. From Iaşi, flights to Zakynthos, Paris-CDG, Mykonos, Heraklion and Barcelona are to be gradually added. All of the above destinations are to be served twice a week.
