Wizz Air will resume the flights on the last six routes from Skopje base in the upcoming period which remained suspended for quite a long time as the Airport of Skopje is doing reconstruction on its single runway until 28th May. The carrier will resume the flights to Bremen on 30th May, to Budapest and Malta on 1st June, to Vaxjo on 2nd June and to Bologna on 3th June. The flights to Turin will also be launched on 1st June.

The airline has deployed five aircrafts at Skopje base, three of which are Airbus A321 with 230 seats capacity and the other two are Airbus A320 with 180 seats capacity. Wizz Air had five aircrafts at Skopje base before the pandemic as well, but all of them were an Airbus A320 variant with 180 seats capacity.
There are 31 routes from Skopje base, two of which were launched in mid December of 2021 ( Bologna and Billund ) and one is expected to be launched on 1st June
( Turin ). The airline also terminated three routes in early 2022 - Barcelona, Larnaca and Hannover. In 2020, Wizz Air launched Skopje - Salzburg service but terminated the route soon after due to the pandemic.
Wizz Air plans to reach new contract for subsidies with the Macedonian Government this summer season and to return the flights from Skopje to Hannover, Barcelona and Larnaca as well as from Milan Malpensa to Ohrid. Three new routes from Skopje are also planned, Prague, Split and Maribor are considered.
