Direct Fly in Polish Skies from Mid-April

Direct Fly is the first carrier in Poland to go directly on such routes as Gdańsk - Cracow, without stopping in Warsaw.

“Direct Fly is a new brand which Sky Express cargo carrier used to launch scheduled passenger flights from 6 airports in Poland and 2 airports abroad," says Jan Szczepkowski, President of Direct Fly.

The new airlines will service the following connections:
Cracow - Gdańsk, Warsaw - Gdańsk, Warsaw - Wrocław, Gdańsk - Wrocław, Łódź - Berlin, Gdańsk - Berlin, Bydgoszcz - Berlin, and Bydgoszcz - Copenhagen.

Direct Fly will also launch cyclic charter flights on the Łódź - Kiev and Rzeszów - Lviv routes. It is already evident that the interest in these connections is so large the flights will be provided at least twice a week. Tickets for the charter flights will be booked at Łódź-based Wilejka travel agency. 

“Our offer is addressed to people who hate to overpay but find the lack of comfort on budget flights a last resort. The average fare on the Gdańsk - Warsaw route is PLN 314. This means that tickets can be bought at PLN 149 to PLN 419. As regards connections such as Gdańsk - Berlin, the average fare is PLN 405, i.e. from PLN 199 to PLN 499. The fares are exclusive of airport charges," - says Vice-President Sławomir Decewicz.

On the Gdańsk - Cracow and Gdańsk - Wrocław routes, there will be one flight daily, five days a week - from Monday to Friday. Aircraft to Warsaw and Berlin will fly once daily, seven days a week.

Direct Fly has also prepared a special offer for companies. A Multiple Air Pass for 20 or 40 flights allows flights on a selected route at a fixed price even if tickets are booked at the last moment.

In the case of connections such as Warsaw - Gdańsk, with a Multiple Air Pass for 20 flights, a single flight will cost PLN 299. With a Multiple Air Pass for 40 flights, the price drops to PLN 269. The average regular fare on this route is PLN 309.

On March 14 at 8:00 a.m. www.directfly.pl portal will be launched as the main ticket sales channel. Additionally, tickets can be bought via a call-centre. Two weeks before departure of the first flights, tickets will also be available from airport outlets.

Direct Fly is going to use Swedish Saab 340 aircraft: 34-seaters with comfortable leather seats. Free in-flight catering will be provided.
