Worth noting that Wizz Air has been cited in the press as a potential acquisition target for International Airlines Group.

New base

01/07/2016

WIZZ AIR OPENS ITS IASI BASE

SIXTH BASE IN ROMANIA, 1 BASED AIRBUS A320, 8 ROUTES

Wizz Air, the largest low-cost airline in Central and Eastern Europe, and Romania’s largest airline today celebrates the opening of its newest Romanian base in Iasi. The airline is initially deploying one Airbus A320 aircraft to be based at Iasi International Airport operating five new routes from Iasi to Larnaca, Bologna, Tel Aviv, Catania and Rome Ciampino starting from 1 July.

Already served by WIZZ flights, Iasi is becoming WIZZ’s sixth Romanian airport with base operations. The new aircraft increases the number of routes served from Iasi to eight and will triple the seat capacity to 265,000 in 2016. The airline hopes this will stimulate the local job market in aviation and tourism sectors as consumers will have access to more low cost routes.

Should the existence of a Tuzla - Vaxjo route be less surprising than I find it (which is very)?

Tuzla-Vaxjo

Lots of Bosnians and others from that region ended up in Sweden. It's basically the equivalent of Doncaster-Katowice, which might appear equally odd to a Swede.

@AirportPlanner1: Ah! I see.

Oddly enough the airport the route did indeed initially make me think of was Doncaster, but then thought about just how many routes Doncaster and Tuzla have compared to Vaxjo, and decided that the comparison was more something like a random route springing up from Durham Tees Valley to Chisinau!

Wizz Air will commence a twice weekly Liverpool to Lublin service from 21 May 2017 operating every Wednesday and Sunday.

Also, for next summer, Liverpool to Budapest will increase to 3 weekly and will be flown by Airbus A321s in place of A320s.

Could anyone from Wizzair, or having worked there, sum up their experience there ?
Rosters, hours per year, work environment, etc..

Are the payscales here accurate ?

Passenger numbers were up 17.9% to 2.14m, while the load factor - which gauges how full the flights were - edged up to 91.6% from 90.9%.

On a rolling 12-month basis, passenger numbers increased 19.4% to 21.83m and the load factor rose to 88.6% from 87.8%.

In September, the airline continued to expand its network and strengthen its customer offering, opening its 25th operating base in Kutaisi, Georgia.

It also expanded its network to 129 airports with four new destinations on sale to and from Satu Mare in Romania, Eilat in Israel, Faro in Portugal and Lamezia Terme in Italy.
