"From the very start, digital technology has been a foundation of WIZZ's success, with 96% of our sales coming through wizzair.com, already one of the world's top ten most-visited airline websites. However, the world around us and our customers are becoming ever-more focused on digital channels and technologies. Joel Goldberg's appointment as Chief Digital Officer will ensure that Wizz Air's digital development not only keeps up with, but also anticipates the future needs of our customers as well as improving efficiency across the business as we continue our mission to become the undisputed cost-leader among European airlines.

Also importantly, we remain highly driven by the market opportunities for the Wizz brand and customer proposition in the United Kingdom and as a result we continue to invest by building our network and operations as well as enhancing our leadership and organizational capacity in the country.
