When Wizzair pulled out. My theory being that soon as they started backtracking on the number of based aircraft they were probably subject to minimum passenger/seat clause to claim fee rebates such is the way commercial agreements tend to work,
Peel have been quite clear in their Strategic Review that they have knocked on all available doors and have not been able to attract/retain the volume carriers required to reach critical mass, this we already know. I think Wizz were the last roll of the dice. They had completed a CAPEX within the last year for the added air bridge gates, clearly in anticipation for the growth from Wizz that didn’t materialise. Closure was never their Plan A.
