Wizz Air Ukraine was a Ukrainian low-cost carrier established as a subsidiary of the Hungarian ultra-low-cost airline Wizz Air. It was created to operate domestic and international flights under a Ukrainian operating certificate, allowing the group to better serve routes to and from Ukraine. The airline operated with the IATA code WU and ICAO code WAU, using the callsign WIZZAIR UKRAINE. It was headquartered in Kyiv, Ukraine, and focused primarily on connecting Ukrainian cities with destinations across Europe. Operations were significantly disrupted following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, which led to the closure of Ukrainian airspace. As a result, Wizz Air Ukraine effectively suspended all flights, leaving its future status uncertain.

Hubs & network

Wizz Air Ukraine primarily operated from Kyiv Boryspil International Airport and Kyiv Igor Sikorsky International Airport.

Fleet

The airline operated Airbus A320 family aircraft, consistent with the broader Wizz Air group fleet strategy.
