HUNGARY-<\/strong> According to a statement from Wizz Air (W6)<\/a> Holdings reported by Proactive Investors, there has been a notable increase in passenger numbers during March, partly due to the resumption of flights to Israel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, flights to Tel Aviv (TLV)<\/a>, Israel, resumed from six bases, and additional routes are scheduled to reopen in April, May, and June. Approximately 6% of Wizz’s capacity was utilized at the time of its closure in early October following the start of the Israel-Hamas conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, in early March, Wizz had already announced that it would resume operating flights to Israel <\/a>from Budapest, Sofia, Bucharest, Krakow, London, and Rome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The month’s capacity was about 5.3 million seats, up 13.6% from the previous year; nonetheless, this resulted in 1.3% fewer average load factors (70.8%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking ahead, Wizz confirmed special flights for the 2024 UEFA Euros in Germany, with fans attending the football competition probably driving up demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
