The Hungary-based airline carried 6.35m passengers last month, Seat capacity increased 7.9% year on year, resulting in a load factor of 92.8%, down 1 percentage point from the same month last year.
Load factor was negatively impacted by the geopolitical crisis in the Middle East as well as the late loading of Tel Aviv cancellation-driven replacements, the company said on Monday.
Wizz Air will resume services to Tel Aviv from August 8, serving 8 countries on 10 routes. The full return to service of 24 routes to 11 countries should be deployed by mid-September, it added.
