(Picture: Wizz Air )Losses at Budget airline Wizz Air have widened to 384 million euros in the six months to September, the firm said today, as a strong summer recovery was unable to offset severe travel disruption earlier in the year.
But the Budapest-based business sounded a note of optimism as it said demand for flights remained strong and confirmed plans to expand its fleet, upping capacity by 35%. The company posted a more than doubling of sales to 2.2 billion euros.
