In a memo to crew, Wizz Air presents its criteria for laying off pilots such as “willingness to work on days off”, “absence history” and “cooperation with the company”.
Was such a memo indeed sent to the crews? Or is it another rumour circulated by the media?
It was supposed to be like that for WIZZ UK... Other bases have different criteria like base captains decision, or grading system according to performance, years in Wizz and age.
