(Sharecast News) - Budget carrier Wizz Air said May passenger numbers rose 2.1% although capacity was still impacted by the grounding of 45 Airbus aircraft due to issues with their Pratt & Whitney GTF engines.
The airline carried 5.1 million passengers with a load factor of 91% - a key measure of profitability in aviation that measures how full planes are - up from 90.2% from 2023. Capacity rose 1.2% year on year to 5.6 million seats.
