Elbit Systems awarded $2.3 billion contract as results soar
The company’s order backlog as of 30 September totalled $25.2 billion and more than a third of this is scheduled to be fulfilled before the end of 2026.
Web check-in added by Wizz Air in three more countries
Wizz Air reports that it has now fully deployed his web check-in service in the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland.
Web check-in is now available for all flights departing from Budapest, Gdansk, Katowice, Poznan, Warsaw, Wrocław, London Luton and Prague. More airports will be introduced in the upcoming weeks and the service will be fully deployed by 1 April 2010.
Web check-in is available at wizzair.com from seven days up to three hours before the scheduled departure time of the flight. The service does not impact on the rest of the boarding procedure: passengers are still required to present themselves at the boarding gate no later than 30 minutes before the scheduled departure time of the flight.
As part of its commitment to reduce costs and offer cheaper fares to its passengers, Wizz Air will introduce an airport check-in fee from 1 April 2010. Airport check-in purchased at the time of booking will cost €5 and €10 if purchased at the airport on the day of departure. The web check-in service is completely free.
