Ryanair to rebrand Polish operations later this year
Ryanair has said it will rebrand its Polish operations as Buzz later this year.
Currently operating as Ryanair Sun, the subsidiary will operate with a Polish air operator’s certificate.
Ryanair Sun, a standalone business unit of the Ryanair Group, obtained its Polish certificate at the beginning of 2018 and started operating for Polish tour-operators in summer last year.
Buzz’s fleet currently includes 17 aircraft, and is expected to grow to 25 in the summer.
It will continue to provide charter services and operate scheduled Ryanair flights.

Ryanair acquired the Buzz brand in 2003 when it bought a rival low-cost carrier operating with that name from KLM UK.
It operated from Stansted but was closed down in 2004.
In Warsaw, Juliusz Komorek, chairman of Buzz Supervisory Board, said: “We are excited to launch Buzz today, and to see our newly branded aircraft appear in Poland this autumn.”
Buzz will launch its own website and app in the autumn, where Polish customers will be able to book all Ryanair flights, including these operated by Buzz.
Buzz is one of four airlines of the Ryanair Group, alongside Ryanair DAC, Laudamotion and Ryanair UK.
Michał Kaczmarzyk, Ryanair Sun chief executive, added: “Following a successful year of growth for Ryanair Sun, we are delighted that our planes will have a new and unique branding as we launch Buzz.
“Our goal is to offer services at the highest level to both customers and tour-operators.”
