Wizz Air will not offer 100 free flights to Ukrainian refugees

HIBRID

The portal "AlbanianPost.com" has published an article titled "Wizz Air offers 100 thousand free flights for Ukrainian refugees."

Fact-checking by hibrid.info has confirmed that the title of this article is misspelled, as the content states that the European low-cost airline, "Wizz Air", has announced that it will offer 100 free seats on short-haul flights to Ukrainian refugees.

So, this airline did not say it would offer 100 flights, as the headline says.

Excerpt from the article published on AlbanianPost.com:

European low-cost airline Wizz Air has announced that it will offer 100 free seats on short-haul flights to Ukrainian refugees.

The Hungary-based company said on social media that it was "committed" to helping Ukrainian refugees reach their destination.

The seats will be available on Wizz Air flights departing from Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania during March.

The airline "Wizz Air" made this announcement via its official Twitter account. (see here)

“WIZZ is committed to helping Ukrainian refugees reach their destination, wherever it may be. We are offering 100,000 free seats on short-haul flights departing from Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania in March,” says the Wizz Air announcement translated into Albanian.


Analyze:

The portal "AlbanianPost.com" has incorrectly reported that the airline "Wizz Air" is offering 100 free flights for Ukrainian refugees, while the content states that this airline has announced that it will donate 100 free seats on short-haul flights departing from Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania in March.

After fact-checking analysis by hibrid.info, it appears that this article is considered an "error".
