Last month, Wizz said industry supply chain disruptions had forced it into "tactical capacity reductions" this summer, although it didn’t specify the extent to which it plans to reduce its operations.
"We’ve now adjusted our network in view of the industry supply chain disruptions, making tactical capacity reductions from June onwards to increase the agility of our operation and supply chain," said chief executive Joszef Varadi.
