Yes, Wizz are canceling lots of routes. They recently stopped selling VNO-WAW, GDN, AGA, FCO, NYO, GOT, BRI. Last four were removed from sales last week.

Ukrainians in UK are not like the Poles post 2004 looking to go back and forth visiting family. They have little or no desire to be going back, espeecially those with teenage sons because of concerns they may be rounded up for conscription.

There are now 2 million plus Ukrainians in Poland.

Does this mean there are no longer 4 aircraft based at VNO?

It was supposed to go back to 4 for summer season but this was changed last week. Now they have nice full schedule for 3 aircraft and some bogus flights (8 extra rotations for additional 2 aircraft) from old schedule that their inept scheduling department forgot to remove after schedule change.

All low cost carriers cancel routes alm1 just the name of the game. I don't think you can single out Wizz but by what you have written before you seem to have a grudge against Wizz me thinks.

I might be to negative nowadays. I've flown them over 100 times since 2004 and had no big issues, even had their usefull PrivilegePass at one point.
Still I think Wizz Air stand out - they change schedulles a lot more frequently and have more errors in them than any other airline.

Wizz pulled out of Donetsk a few months before peace turned to war there... wouldn't be surprised if Wizz were getting nervous right now about continuing to fly to Kharkiv...

Well anything could happen with this Russian Gov but also there doesn't seem much touristic draw to Kharkiv in contrast to Lviv and Kiev and I can't imagine it's that easy for Ukrainians to get easy access in the current climate

As someone who has relatives in various parts of Ukraine I might see things a bit differently, when Wizz first announced routes from Kharkiv we were surprised as Kharkov isn't really a tourist destination like Lviv or Kyiv, granted it is a gorgeous city but not one I would visit more than once. From what I have been able to find out from family and friends in Kharkiv the London route is very hit and miss, there have never been any full flights or even 3/4 full flights in either direction, however when I flew Luton to Lviv and return at the end of October / beginning of November both flights where full with no empty seats at all, when I commented to a member of cabin crew she said it was usually like that to Lviv or Kyiv, she said it was very rare if a flight was less than 1/2 full. As I have already said Kharkiv is not a tourist city it's a bit like Mykolayiv not many people have heard about it because it's not a tourist place.

hi guys, how long after the sim assessment did you get a reply from wizz if you were sucessful or not, when you interviewed for a pilot position?

Buster the Bear 25th Jan 2019 18:33

Wizz applied for lots of Gatwick slots, but have only picked up those obtained from Wow.
