The aircraft of the Wizz Air Group stationed in Vienna-Schwechat will in future be operated by the new subsidiary Wizz Air Malta. The changeover will take place at the end of November or beginning of December 2022 and has already been made visible in the reservation system.
From this point forward, the destinations Amman, Barcelona, Bari, Eindhoven, London-Gatwick, Malaga, Nice, Nis, Ohrid, Pristina, Keflavik, Tel Aviv, and Tenerife will be served by Wizz Air Malta 's Airbus A321neo aircraft . These aircraft will also be used on routes to Rome-Fiumicino, Naples, Catania, Milan-Malpensa, Venice, Turin, and, following the W-pattern, from Chisinau and Memmingen. Further routes will be converted at a later date.
In December 2022, all routes offered with aircraft based in Vienna-Schwechat will be switched to Wizz Air Malta. Only routes using aircraft based at other airports will continue to be served by Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, Wizz Air Hungary and Wizz Air UK. In most cases, Wizz Air Malta flights are operated under Wizz Air Hungary flight numbers, as it formally only acts as an intra-group wet lease provider.
The airline has not issued any statement on the forthcoming changeover in Vienna-Schwechat, which has already been made public in the reservation system.
