Wizz Air will provide around four million seats on its Hungarian flights to 70 destinations this summer season, thereby maintaining its market leadership in the country.
This summer season, Wizz Air will continue to offer more seats than any of its competitors. According to their announcement, this will further strengthen their market leadership position in Hungary. The company expects to deliver another outstanding performance in the travel period from April to the end of September, following last year’s record-breaking passenger numbers.
In last summer season, approximately three million passengers flew on Wizz Air flights from Hungary. Most of the passengers booked their tickets well in advance, with the most popular destinations being beach resorts and historic cities with many attractions.
