Wizz Air has closed its base at Tuzla Airport, just over eight years after stationing its first aircraft in the city. During the week, the airline discontinued the majority of its operations out of Tuzla and relocated its two stationed aircraft. Local cabin crew have been offered the possibility to transfer to other bases. Wizz Air will continue to maintain operations from Basel, Dortmund and Memmingen to Bosnia and Herzegovina’s second busiest airport, which it has deemed as its three most profitable routes to Tuzla. Services to Hahn, the only other remaining route in addition to the abovementioned trio will end in late October. This coming winter season, Wizz Air will provide a total of 82.100 seats on its Tuzla operations (both inbound and outbound combined) down 72.7% on the previous winter. Furthermore, the figure is down 75.9% on the 340.200 seats it initially put on sale on its Tuzla services for the coming winter before deciding to shut its base. Wizz Air has said a “challenging macroeconomic environment, along with complicated weather conditions, such as frequent fogs” have made it impossible to operate a large network from Tuzla Airport. For its part, Tuzla Airport has said it is in talks with “regional carriers” over replacing a part of Wizz Air’s traffic.
