On Friday, June 7, at 09:00, HiSky flight number H4101 departed from Henri Coand\u0103 International Airport in Bucharest, bound for New York. This is the first direct transatlantic flight departing from Romania, operated by a scheduled airline, in more than 20 years. The non-stop flight takes approximately 10 hours.<\/p>\n
With the launch of the route between Bucharest and New York, HiSky becomes the only private company in the history of Romanian aviation to operate scheduled flights to the United States and the first airline to introduce this destination into its regular schedule after the national carrier ceased its flights in 2003.<\/p>\n
For the inaugural flight, the aircraft carrying the first passengers to the USA is piloted by the CEO of HiSky himself, Iulian Scorpan, a commander pilot with over 20 years of experience.<\/p>\n
Regular flights connecting Henri Coand\u0103 Airport with New York’s primary airport, John F. Kennedy, will be operated with four frequencies per week, departing from Romania every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday, and returning.<\/p>\n
The direct Bucharest-New York route can also be accessed by passengers from Cluj-Napoca and Chi\u0219in\u0103u. The company’s booking system offers a direct purchase option for these flights, with a connection of only one hour and 10 minutes at the Bucharest airport.<\/p>\n
