Wizz Air ends flights from Cardiff Airport
Wizz Air managing director Marion Geoffroy said: "The challenging macro-economic environment and high operational costs including fuel mean that unfortunately we are unable to continue operating from Cardiff Airport.
"Our priority now is to ensure that all affected customers are contacted directly with clear advice on their options, and to look after our Cardiff based colleagues and crew."The company announced its new base at Cardiff Airport in December 2020 - a move that created 40 jobs. However, it reported growing losses of £381m in the first quarter of 2022 financial year, which it said was down to the effect of fuel costs and recent airport disruption.
The Welsh government said its Covid recovery plan remained in place, but the aviation sector was suffering in the current economic climate.
