(Alliance News) - Wizz Air Holdings PLC will fly 60% to 80% of its 2019 capacity this summer as the travel situation improves, Reuters reported.
"I'm expecting something between 60% to 80%, and this is the Wizz Air perspective," Chief Executive Jozsef Varadi told a virtual aviation conference on Friday, according to Reuters.

In a trading update earlier this month, the Budapest-based low-cost airline said it expected "only a gradual traffic recovery into late summer 2021" before what it expects to be a period of "good progress" of national vaccination plans. However, it hadn't provided the percentage of pre-pandemic capacity that it expected to fly.
Wizz Air is "well placed for a return to normal operations" following recent investments in airplanes and new routes, it had said.
