WIZZ AIR recently carried its 10 millionth passenger. Congratulations Wizz Air! Clearly more people are taking advantage of how easy it is to travel around Europe than ever before. And so they should: Wizz Air recently opened its first route to Finland; see our feature on mysterious bars in Turku on page 52 to find out about the city. The airline's latest hub, Cluj, has been touted as a must-visit destination for 2008, and we not only give you a glimpse this beautiful city on page 30 ourselves, but have residents the Cheeky Girls take you on a personal tour of their favourite spots on page 84. Wherever you are headed though, we wish you a great time and hope you are inspired to visit somewhere new by reading this issue.
Gratulujemy! - Wizz Air przewiózl właśnie swojego 10-milionowego pasażera. Po prostu coraz więcej ludzi korzysta z możliwości łatwego podróżowania po Europie. I tak być powinno: Wizz Air wprowadził ostatnio nowe połączenie do Finlandii; na 52 s. znajdziesz artykuł o niesamowitych barach w Turku. Ostatnie odkrycie linii Wizz Air, Kluż, znalazło się na liście miejsc, które trzeba odwiedzić w 2008 r.; oprócz tego, że sami piszemy o tym pięknym mieście (30
s.), na wycieczkę po nim zabiorą was również jego mieszkanki, Cheeky Girls (84 s.). Dokądkolwiek się jednak dziś wybieracie, życzymy wam udanego pobytu. Mamy też nadzieję, że uda nam się zainspirować was do zwiedzenia jakiegoś nowego miejsca.

| GAVIN KNIGHT is a freelance journalist who has travelled throughout the former Soviet Union. Fluent in Russian, he used to live in the Ukrainian city of Odessa on the Black Sea. He writes for The Guardian, Esquire, Monocle, New Statesman, among others. His Wizz Air cocktail is the Cluj Caipirosca: it has all the exuberance of a student vodka shot session, blended with the energy boost of a mountain-hiking trek. |

| DEBBIE WARD has been a travel journalist for 10 years and spent several as features editor of Travel Trade Gazette before turning freelance. A fan of eastern Europe, she once learnt the Romanian for "I am Polish" in an attempt to stop Bucharest taxi-drivers triple charging her. Later, her Romanian friends taught her the subtle difference in pronunciation between "Polish" and "Penis". Her Wizz Air cocktail is Krakow Dawn - best enjoyed under a duvet. |

| MARGIE RYNN is a freelance writer living in Paris. She contributes to Budget Travel magazine and wrote Pauline Frommer's Paris, the latter's travails subsequently inspiring her blog, "The Completely Useless Guide to Paris." Her Wizz Air cocktail is the Paris Mist, a mysterious combination of champagne, blue curaçao and goat's milk that at first fills you with wonder and awe and then makes you want to throw yourself into the Seine. |

| DAVID WILES is the editor of business quarterly Sweden Today. Based in Malmö, he also writes about business, technology and Swedish life and culture for a number of international publications. His Wizz Air cocktail is the Turning Torso, named for Malmö's iconic skyscraper: at the top your head is spinning; halfway down and your stomach starts to turn, and by the time you reach the bottom, you're nauseous. |
