The Tourism Committee of Armenia rejected recent claims suggesting that the airline’s flights had been suspended due to technical aircraft issues. Officials stated that these reports are not true.

The Committee also noted that, according to the international organization AirlineRatings, Wizz Air ranks among the world’s 50 safest airlines and is listed in the top 10 safest low-cost carriers globally.
