Such actions could be connected with a change in the deadline for the receipt of a third aircraft for the Kyiv base, the media outlet suggested.

The third plane is expected to arrive in Zhuliany (Kyiv Airport) in April 2018, after which Wizz Air planned to launch new flights to Lisbon and Tallinn and increase the frequency of flights on existing routes.
