Wizz Air has been named the worst major airline for flight delays in the UK for the second year in a row, according to an investigation.
The Hungarian carrier reportedly saw an average of 46 minutes and six seconds behind schedule for UK departures in 2022, as revealed by PA news agency's analysis of Civil Aviation Authority data. On average, this was three times longer than what was recorded in the previous year where Wizz Air also ranked the lowest.
The data has been labelled as "worrying" by the consumer group Which? and demonstrates the 'need' for the CAA to be provided tougher powers. Across the country, Wizz Air operates short-haul flights from eight UK airports such as Birmingham, Edinburgh, Gatwick, and Luton.
