FURTHER IMPROVEMENTS IN LOADS AND CO2 EMISSIONS SEEN IN MARCH TRAFFIC
STATISTICS

Ticker:  WIZZ

 

Geneva, 2 April 2025: Wizz Air Holdings Plc ("Wizz Air"), one of the most
sustainable European airlines, announces passenger and CO(2) emission
statistics for March 2025.

 

Wizz Air carried 5.1 million passengers during the month of March, a 6.4%
increase year on year. Seat capacity was up 6.7% YoY, resulting in a load
factor of 90.5%, down 0.3 ppts on last year's load factor of 90.8%.

 

During the month:

 

·              March load factor remained steady YoY, despite
both a return to capacity growth and Easter moving from March to April.

·              A strong start to Q1 F26, with April fares up in
the mid-to-high teens YoY due to Easter falling entirely in April.

·              Summer bookings look encouraging, with load
factors currently 2-3 ppts higher than this time last year in the core summer
months.

·              Wizz Air continues to be a leader in reducing
emissions, reporting a further decrease in CO(2) emissions per RPK in March,
down 1.0% YoY, to 51.0 grams.
