Low-cost carrier Wizz Air (including Wizz Air UK) recently hit the headlines after reporting losses of €285 million but for passengers and staff, the woes lie deeper within the airline, particularly when it comes to its responsibilities towards passengers when flights are cancelled or delayed.
Why is Wizz airline cheap?
Wizz Air, like other low-cost carriers, has a business model based on economies of scale. Rather than taking a large profit from each traveler, the airline takes a smaller profit while carrying more passengers. This is why you won’t find a premium cabin on any of Wizz Air’s planes.
Is Wizz Air same as Ryanair?
Seats – Ryanair – Bigger legroom and more comfortable seats go a long way, especially if you are flying a long way too! Baggage – Depends on how much baggage you have and how far the route is.
