London Luton and Wizz Air have celebrated a significant milestone this week. The handling of their 65 millionth passenger.

The lucky passenger was welcomed on a flight to Istanbul. It also represents the long standing relationship the two sides have had since the first flight from Katowice to the area was operated.

Wizz Air currently operates around 100 flights per day to 58 months.

Wizz Air has been getting up to a lot at London Luton Airport.

Last month, the carrier announced plans to add an additional A321neo at the airport, bringing the total fleet count to 12 aircraft out of that base.

The airport believes this will provide greater accessibility to popular destinations, with frequencies due to increase to the following in the Winter 2023/24 season:

  • Hurghada –4 weekly flights
  • Sharm el Sheikh – 3weekly flights
  • Tirana – 35 weekly flights
  • Prague – 12 weekly flights
  • Reykjavik – 7 weekly flights
  • Amman –5 weekly flights

More recently, the carrier has just inaugurated services between London Luton and Brasov, as the route network continues to grow at that airport.

Overall, this is a significant milestone, and all eyes will be on how the performance between the two sides will continue towards the end of the year, and also it’s 20th anniversary of operations too.
