Did you ever miss the onward flight of your self-transfer?

What did you do then? Did you find a reasonable new connection and air fare? Once I made a self-transfer in VIE. The first flight was going to depart late, so I asked the FR staff at the gate if they could do anything. The reply was "We are a point-to-point airline". xD In VIE I was shocke...

Re: Next destinations from WizzAir from Abu Dhabi?

I do self-hubbing by myself. But the majority of passengers hasn't done it before. BUD, BER and BGY support it. But all the other European airports don't. Having a layover of 1:50h, the first flight only needs to be late 1:30h and you miss the connecting flight. With checked luggage 1 hour delay mea...

Re: Next destinations from WizzAir from Abu Dhabi?

For longer distances you can always transfer somewhere halfway. Just for passengers a direct 6:30h flight would be easier. In 2023 Wizz gonna introduce long routes with XLR. The air fares will be of course higher than the current air fares. So the customers get used to somewhat higher prices on lon...

Re: Next destinations from WizzAir from Abu Dhabi?

I think I know now, why Wizz hasn't flown longer routes than 2265 nautical miles (KTW-AUH range, 6 hour flight). Because of the maximum duty time of the pilots. In Europe pilots are allowed to fly up to 13-14 hours per day including preparation and review. In order to fly the two sections with the s...

Re: Did W6 ever fly with an A321ceo between the UAE and BUD/KTW?

it looks like the actual range of the A321ceo including buffer is not enough for this route for Wizz Air.

There was never a longer route than Katowice<>UAE in their network: 2270nm / 4200km

The A320ceo, A320neo and A321neo have a longer range than the A321ceo.
