Wizz Air Holdings ( (GB:WIZZ) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Wizz Air reported robust traffic figures for December 2025, carrying 5.85 million passengers, a 15.5% year-on-year increase, on capacity up 16.3% to 6.81 million seats, with a load factor of 85.9%. Over the rolling 12 months, capacity and passengers grew by around 9%, while the airline also improved its environmental efficiency, cutting CO2 emissions per passenger-kilometre by 2.5% year-on-year in December and 3.2% over the year, despite overall emissions rising with growth. Operationally, the company advanced its network densification strategy by adding a 15th aircraft to each of its bases at London Luton, Rome Fiumicino, Tirana and Warsaw-Chopin for Summer 2026, reopening its Targu Mures base in Romania, and opening a new base at Warsaw-Modlin with two A321neos, strengthening its Central and Eastern European positioning. Wizz Air further broadened its distribution channels by partnering with Kyte to open its third-party distribution platform to the corporate travel market, complementing an earlier agreement with aggregator Travelfusion, and underscored its cyber resilience by achieving a top compliance rating under the EU’s new NIS2 cybersecurity framework, steps that collectively enhance its commercial reach, operational robustness and appeal to regulators and corporate customers ahead of the 2026 summer season.
