The low-cost carrier – which currently focusses on the European market – is said to be considering new routes to the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Israel.
Speaking to the Financial Times , Marion Geoffroy, managing director of Wizz Air UK, said the Hungarian-owned airline will use some of its 47 new longer-range single-aisle aircraft it has on order from Airbus, which are slated to enter service in 2024.
"Of course, the UK would be a good market [for the XLR], and we’ve actually started the design of the potential network for XLRs and secured some designations to countries where we currently don’t fly to," she added.
