About

Legally incorporated as Wizz Air Hungary and stylised as W!zz Air, the well known Hungarian airline services many cities across Europe, as well as destinations in North Africa and the Middle East. Whilst not a flag carrier, the airline still presides over the largest fleet in Hungary with 104 airplanes and services 44 countries. Despite the fact that Wizz Air’s parent company is based in Jersey, the company’s Hungarian offices house a lot of the operational functional units, including Wizz Air’s highly rated legal department. Comprised of some of the best aviation lawyers not only in Hungary but in Europe, the team has been instrumental to Wizz Air’s ongoing international growth and development. For instance, in 2016 alone, the company announced bases at David the Builder Kutaisi International Airport and Chișinău International Airport in Moldova, whilst a year later, it expanded to include bases at airports in the UK, Israel, Pristina, Kosovo, Kutasi in Georgia for a total of over 500 routes. This year, the company announced its expansion plans in terms of its presence in Vienna, with the company planning to operate a total of 17 new routes from the Austrian capital. These achievements would not be possible without the legal team’s superior skills in international law and well-rounded understanding of the global aviation industry.
