POSITION: HEAD OF
GROUND OPERATIONS
What could you not do
your job without?
My team! I’m privileged to
be working with very talented
people, who are passionate
about the job they do and are
making every effort to ensure we
provide the very best quality of
service for our passengers.
What is your favourite
place in a city?
A comfortable bed in my
flat or hotel in any city is
high on my list! Seriously
though, every time I visit
a new place I try to explore
USEFUL INFORMATION
Use the web check-in service on wizzair.com – it makes travel
more convenient by decreasing queuing at check-in.
Don’t forget that by booking additional services such as priority boarding,
extra legroom seat, SMS confirmation and airport transfer services you can
make your travel more comfortable.
If you travel with hand luggage only, make sure that it does not exceed
10kg. If you travel with checked baggage, do not forget to pay for it online:
you will be paying half the price!

the local cuisine and indulge
myself with something special.
As a typical woman, saying
no to shopping is not an
option, somehow I cannot
resist a bargain!
What is the best part of
your job
Mobility – every day I’m
meeting new people and
overcoming my own limitations.
Is there anywhere on the
network you have not been
yet but would like to go to?
Definitely Scandinavia. It’s been
on my wish list for a long time
now. For years, I’ve dreamt of
exploring the unspoiled nature
around the Norwegian fjords but
every time it comes to booking
my holiday I end up going to
more tropical places. Well,
maybe next year...

What is your favourite city
and why?
Rome. Have you ever tried the
local espresso or pizza? So that’s
the answer!
What is your favourite
route?
Budapest to Tirgu Mures,
that’s our shortest route!
Because of the size of the
operation we’re running, I often
have to travel. Airports and
aircraft, apart from being my
job, have become my second
home. I love travelling, but there
are times when over the course
of just a few days I have to visit
multiple airports in different
countries. A good connection
with a short flight time helps
to be efficient.
How long have you been
with the company?
I joined Wizz Air at the very
beginning back in 2004, two
months after operational
start-up. Back then I started
with the customer service
department. As the company
grows, my career is developing
simultaneously. You may say
I grew up professionally with
Wizz Air, that's why I feel such
commitment to the company.
BAGGAGE POLICY
Wizz Air has simplified its baggage rules. Wizz Air eliminated
the excess weight fees and made booking even easier. The airline
applies a single fee for a piece of checked-in baggage regardless of the weight
(up to 32kg per baggage).
Passengers are kindly reminded that the rule concerning the allowance
for carry-on luggage does not change. Wizz Air will be strictly applying
a €60 fee for oversized/overweight hand luggage at the gate and these bags
will have to be checked in.
