About 4V
4V operates as a regional carrier built around Chisinau (RMO), the capital of the Republic of Moldova — not exactly a hub you hear about every day, which is precisely what makes it interesting. With 16 non-stop routes spread across 9 airports and a total network covering 22,776 km, this is a focused, point-to-point operation rather than a sprawling connect-everything machine. The route map leans heavily into leisure corridors — think sun destinations like Egypt and Turkiye — which tells you a lot about who's buying these seats and why.
Why fly 4V?
The honest reason most people end up on 4V is access. If you're flying out of RMO, your options are limited, and 4V covers 8 routes from that hub alone. That concentration is actually a strength — they know their core market. The leisure-heavy network means you're looking at routes like HRG-RMO (the longest in the system at 2,237 km) that serve real demand: Moldovan travelers heading to Egyptian beach resorts, Albanians connecting through TIA, sun-seekers out of SSH. If your destination is Turkiye or Egypt and you're based in or near Moldova, this airline probably has the most direct routing available to you without adding a connection somewhere in Western Europe and paying for the privilege.

Tips for booking 4V
Book directly and check baggage allowances carefully before assuming anything — leisure-focused regional carriers frequently use restrictive fare classes where the base ticket looks cheap but bags push the total cost up fast. With only 16 routes in the network, there's no hub-and-spoke safety net here: if your flight cancels, rebooking options are thin. SSH and HRG departures tend to be seasonal, so confirm your dates are actually operating before you build an itinerary around them. First-time flyers should treat this as a point-to-point specialist, not a connector — it does that job well, just don't expect alliance perks or lounge access at RMO.
