Billund is the home of the Lego Group and it is also known for its theme park, Legoland. The city is a popular destination for tourists, especially families with children. Since 2009 the town is also the home of Lalandia Billund, a waterpark and activity center. A number of other attractions like the Givskud Zoo and Kongernes Jelling – the home of the viking kings can be found in the area.

With its vibrant cultural, political, media and science life, Berlin is one of the most popular destinations among tourists. The city is well known for its festivals, diverse architecture, nightlife and contemporary arts, providing a wide choice of cultural programs. Around one-third of the city’s area is composed of parks, gardens and lakes, which makes it a perfect choice for travelers who like sightseeing while being surrounded by the nature at the same time. The town is also a business hub for high-tech, engineering, pharmaceutical and electronics companies providing an ideal destination for business travelers.

The first WIZZ flight from Tuzla took off in 2013. Underlining the company’s commitment to the country, in June 2015 Tuzla became Wizz Air’s 19th base creating a number of local jobs and turning into the 11th country where the airline established base operations. We already carried over 600,000 Bosnia and Herzegovina passengers on our low fare routes and with these new services to Denmark and Germany, Wizz Air now offers a total of 10 routes to 5 countries from Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Tamara Vallois, Head of Communications at Wizz Air said: ”We are delighted today to be announcing two new attractive destinations from Tuzla. We have brought low fares to Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2013 and in only a few years Tuzla has become a stable base with already ten attractive low-fare routes available for our Bosnian customers. Low fare connections to five countries in Europe stimulate the local market by creating more jobs in aviation and hospitality sectors, strengthening business relations between the countries and bringing people the opportunity to discover Europe’s fantastic cities at affordable prices.Our newest services now connect Tuzla with Billund in Denmark and Berlin Schoenefeld in Germany and our professional Bosnian crew looks forward to seeing many happy passengers on board of our young fleet this autumn.”
