Icelandic LCC WOW Air appears to be on the verge of announcing flights to India, firming up plans for a strategic shift toward Asia, as reported by ATW in April.
WOW Air currently serves 38 destinations across Europe, North America and Canada.
Speaking during a recent Aviation Club UK lunch in London, WOW Air CEO Skuli Mogensen said he would be announcing new flights to Asia in May.
A WOW Air press conference invite has now been shared to social media site Airliners.net, giving May 15 as the date for the Indian launch announcement. A related Twitter post suggests that WOW Air’s initial Indian route will be Reykjavik-New Delhi.
“Unfortunately, we can’t disclose any details regarding WOW Air’s plans to expand to Asia at this time. There will be an official announcement regarding this early next week,” a WOW Air spokesman told ATW.
During the lunch on April 26, Mogensen said he sees WOW Air serving 14-15 destinations in Asia, matching the airline’s 14 North American destinations, as he seeks to position Iceland as “the Dubai of the north.”
