Wizz Air has been at the forefront of growth since the pandemic struck, introducing vast numbers of new routes, airports, and bases. However, the ultra-low-cost carrier has now removed 84 routes from sale, with more likely in the coming days. While it’d be easy to dismiss some as seasonal cuts or as simply not yet loaded for 2022, the author has been informed that they’re permanent.

Almost a third of the 84 routes cut involve Italy, with Wizz Air adding seven Italian bases since the pandemic started, including at Milan Malpensa, Rome Fiumicino, and Venice Marco Polo. Italy has become Wizz Air’s most-served country.

A good chunk of the ULCC’s recent expansion involved routes within Western Europe, and over four in ten of its cuts include such routes.

With 12 routes withdrawn, Vienna is the most affected airport. Alghero, Charleroi, Cologne, Dortmund, Eindhoven, Faro, Madrid, Menorca, Oslo, Skavsta, Tallinn, and Warsaw are no longer served. The Austrian capital became a base for Wizz Air in 2018 and has seen huge growth by LCCs/ULCCs, culminating in 12.3 million seats in 2019, OAG shows – double two years previously.
