Too much criticism: Wizz Air will not fly to Moscow!
Change language:
Wizz Air changed its plans again after meeting critical voices regarding their resuming flights to Moscow after they suspended them when the war broke out. For the time being, they will not fly to the Russian capital.
Wizz Air decided to relaunch their Russia-UAE flights earlier this month
As we reported before, Wizz Air announced that they will resume flights from the United Arab Emirates to Moscow in October. Now, things have changed again. Wizz Air has suspended plans to resume flights from the Russian capital Moscow to Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates after mounting criticism of the decision to restart, Reuters reports.
Change of plans due to criticism
Wizz Air’s statement on Friday, in which it postponed flights until further notice, made no mention of the social media backlash, which included calls for a boycott of the airline, but referred only to “industry supply chain constraints”. On Twitter, the airline said in response to the criticisms that the flight would be operated by its Abu Dhabi-based company, which is a UAE-registered company operating under Gulf state rules, Portfolio.hu writes.
