Madinah, one of Islam’s two holiest cities, is a key destination for millions of pilgrims travelling for Hajj or Umrah, and boasts breath-taking views and architecture. Known as ‘The Enlightened City’, Madinah is home to Al Masjid an Nabawi, the Prophet Muhammad’s Mosque, and is a cradle of Islamic culture and civilisation with prominent mosques and landmarks to visit.

Michael Berlouis, Managing Director of Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, said: “We are excited to announce daily flights to the historical city of Madinah, a must-see travel destination steeped in religious history, with countless exciting attractions.
