The jobs will come with 21 brand new Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft joining the Wizz fleet by the end of 2018, adding to the 11 brand new aircraft already delivered in 2017 and taking the carrier’s team to more than 4,500 colleagues by the end of 2018.

The airline’s expansion and career opportunities do not end there, with Wizz planning to double its fleet to more than 160 aircraft by the end of 2024.

Some 400 recruitment sessions, for both pilots and cabin crew, will be organised between now and the end of 2018 in more than 25 countries across Europe and beyond, seeking to attract ambitious and enthusiastic people with a passion for aviation to join the professional Wizz crew team.
