Wizz Air has become the first European airline to restart commercial flights after services to Portugal, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria left the UK yesterday.
Passengers took off from Luton Airport wearing face masks and sitting two metres away from each other, Mail Online reports. The Hungarian budget airline has also removed in-flight magazines and brought in new cleaning measures to reduce the risk of travellers getting infected with coronavirus.
Passengers are also being encouraged to make all payments via contactless card and to watch a new safety video. Wizz re-opened a number of routes from Luton, its UK base, on Friday after grounding flights due to the coronavirus pandemic.
