Passengers travelling from London Luton Airport (LLA) can now benefit from additional routes to Italian hotspots Rome and Milan, courtesy of Wizz Air. 

Wizz Air has launched an offering of 11 flights per week from LLA to Rome Fiumicino and Milan Malpensa and, from 1 December, the airline will bolster its Italian connections further with the launch of a new, year-round service between LLA and the canal-woven city of Venice. 

Simon Harley, Interim Director of Aeronautical Revenue at London Luton Airport, commented: “A commitment to bringing even greater choice is a cornerstone of London Luton Airport’s simple and friendly passenger experience. The launch of these exciting new routes to Rome, Milan, and Venice, and the prospect of experiencing the sights, sounds and flavours of three such iconic Italian cities, is fabulous news for the millions of passengers who choose to fly from LLA each year. LLA’s relationship with Wizz Air continues to go from strength to strength and it’s hugely exciting to see the airline continuing to diversify its route network at LLA with three such sought-after destinations.”

The launch of the new services is timed perfectly for culture vultures heading to Rome for the Romaeuropa Festival that runs until 16 November and celebrates music, dance and theatre across several of the city’s historic venues. Literature lovers can head to Milan for BookCity Milano (10 - 16 November), a city-wide celebration of books, reading, authors and workshops.

Yvonne Moynihan, Managing Director at Wizz Air UK, said: “We are pleased to further expand our operations and connectivity from London Luton Airport with the launch of new routes to two of Italy’s most iconic cities – Rome and Milan. The UK is one of Wizz Air’s key strategic markets, and this expansion underscores our commitment to offering UK and Italian travellers an even broader selection of exciting destinations at the lowest fares. We extend our sincere thanks to our passengers for their continued trust in Wizz Air and to London Luton Airport for their ongoing partnership and support.” 

Next Spring, Wizz Air will extend its LLA route network further with the launch five additional routes to sun-soaked Spanish gems including Bilbao, Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia and Seville.

Airlines include Jet2, easyJet, Wizz Air, Ryanair, Tui, FlyOne, Sun Express and El Al.

The airport is owned for community benefit by Luton Rising, a company wholly-owned by Luton Council, which has invested more than £500m in front-line, voluntary and charitable services since 1998.

The Luton Airport Express is a new dedicated train service that allows passengers to travel from central London to the LLA terminal in around 30 minutes. The Luton Airport Express runs from St Pancras International to Luton Airport Parkway station and connects seamlessly with the DART, an electrically powered people mover that connects to the airport terminal in less than four minutes.

In 2024, LLA was named European Airport of the Year (10-25 million passengers) by ACI EUROPE, and in 2025 LLA received the highest possible rating of 'Very Good' in the annual Airport Accessibility report published by the CAA, assessing assisted travel service performance.

In 2023, LLA also became the third major UK airport to achieve Level 4 of the globally recognised Airport Carbon Accreditation scheme, demonstrating that it is ‘transforming its operations to achieve carbon reductions in line with global climate goals’. With a maximum score of 100 and a five-star rating, LLA has been ranked as a sector leader for four consecutive years in the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) benchmark of sustainability governance management and performance of major infrastructure assets worldwide.
