Hi bkogdan (Bogdan),

When it comes to WIZZ Air, you as a new employee upon finishing the TR do not have a saying in where you will be based. When you sign a contract with WIZZ Air, you will be asked which bases you would prefer, but in the end you get assigned a base where there is a need for F/O.

After you get assigned a base and start flying, you can apply to be transferred to some base. Now depending on the amount of people who are above you on the waiting list you will wait from few months to few years.

Keep in mind that WIZZ Air eventually tries to put people in the bases which are in the home countries of the pilots.

After you start your school for captains and get promoted to left seat, you will most likely again change a base to wherever WIZZ Air needs captains. You would then again apply for transfer and be placed on a waiting list again. In some cases if there is a need for new captains in the base where a pilot currently is, he/she might stay there.

After all, WIZZ Air is a very dynamic Airline and pilots should be willing to adapt if they wish to work for it.
