Abu Dhabi, UAE: Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, the ultra-low-fare national airline of the UAE, in collaboration with the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi), provided travellers with an enriching and unforgettable experience in Abu Dhabi, through its innovative ‘Let’s Get Lost’ campaign, flying a group of explorers from Milan to Abu Dhabi for a once-in-a-lifetime getaway.
