Wizz Air Holdings Plc (LSE:WIZZ) reported an 8.6% year-on-year increase in passenger numbers for November, carrying 5.25 million travellers as it continued to expand capacity. The airline grew available seats by 9.5% to 5.79 million while maintaining a robust load factor of 90.7%, underscoring sustained demand across its network.
The carrier also celebrated the delivery of its 250th aircraft on 28 November, strengthening its position as one of Europe’s fastest-growing low-cost airlines. With more than 260 A321neo-family aircraft still on order, Wizz Air is positioned for substantial fleet and route expansion well into the next decade.
Operational continuity remained intact after the company implemented required software updates overnight on 28 November in response to a newly issued Airworthiness Directive (Ref #2025-0268-E).
Environmental performance continued to improve, with CO₂ emissions per passenger-kilometre falling 3.9% year-on-year to 49.5g—reinforcing Wizz Air’s standing as a sector leader in carbon efficiency.
For the twelve months to November 2025, the airline transported 67.8 million passengers, up 8.3% from the prior year, while its load factor increased by 0.8 percentage points to 91.1%. Wizz Air now operates a fleet of 252 Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft and was named Sustainable Airline of the Year 2025 at the Airline Economics Sustainability Awards Gala in September.
