Lots of people will just give it longer.
Thats a fair assessment, but I also think ATOL is a big selling point currently, something that Wizz passengers won’t benefit from.

On a macro economic level, wallets are getting squeezed. I do wonder how many people will be taking that second weekend break abroad, or that other holiday they might otherwise have booked.

Last I heard, Wizz were planning on putting five aircraft in at DSA eventually. They clearly want to stick around, any schedule re-shuffles should make sure that they don’t have to pull out their based aircraft, they can then just wait until things (hopefully) settle down somewhat.
