Wizz Air carried 5.6 million passengers during the month of October, an increase of 4.1% year on year. Seat capacity was up 3.7%YoY, despite the Pratt & Whitney GTF engine-related groundings, resulting in a load factor of 92.9%, up 40bps 70bps on last year's 92.5%.

During the month:

-     Wizz Air announced on October 21^st that it will open a temporary base in Chisinau, Moldova, commencing direct connections to 16 destinations from December 16^th.

-     Wizz Air also officially opened its new €38m training centre in Rome Fiumicino on October 1^st, with the facility able to provide recurrent training for over 4,800 pilots a year.

-     While still one of the leading airlines in terms of lower emissions per passenger, October saw CO₂/RPK emission increase by 1.9% YoY, to 51.6 grams/RPK. This reflected flying a suboptimal fleet mix due to the GTF related groundings of some of Wizz Air's A321neos. With that said, this was an improvement on the 52.3g of CO₂/ RPK emitted in September.

-     Wizz also announced on October 21^st that it is collaborating with Airbus in a SAF trial on its Barcelona to Budapest (BCN-BUD) and Brussels Charleroi to Budapest (CRL-BUD) routes.
