Wizz Air cancels flights to Riga and Salzburg

Wizz Air will be withdrawing flights to Riga and Salzburg from its network in the coming months. This is due to operational problems related to prolonged difficulties with Pratt & Whitney engines, which are forcing the airline to ground part of its fleet.

Wizz Air is currently only operating one route to Salzburg, from London Luton, and a connection from Kutaisi (Georgia) to Riga. Both routes will soon disappear from the booking system. The last flight to Salzburg is scheduled for 29 March, while the connection from Latvia will be suspended on 31 May.

The decision to withdraw these routes is part of a broader strategy of the carrier, which is struggling with operational deficiencies resulting from Pratt & Whitney engine defects. These problems translate into a reduced number of available aircraft, which forces the limitation of some destinations.
