Budget airline WOW Air abruptly shuts down, cancels all flights including at
Newark airport

Iceland-based budget airline WOW Air abruptly ceased all operations
overnight, canceled all flights and advised booked passengers to seek seats
on other airlines, according to an announcement posted on the company’s
website Thursday morning.

“Some airlines may offer flights at a reduced rate, so-called rescue fares,
in light of the circumstances. Information on those airlines will be
published, when it becomes available,” the airline said in its closure
announcement.

WOW Air destinations in the United States included Newark Liberty
International Airport, which had one arrival from Reykjavik scheduled for 6
p.m. Thursday, followed by a departure to Reykjavik at 7:05 p.m.

Those without travel insurance may be able to seek reimbursement, though the
announcement on WOW Air’s page included the possibility of a bankruptcy
filing.

“Passengers may also be entitled to compensation from WOW AIR, including in
accordance with European regulation on Air Passenger Rights,” the
announcement said. “In case of a bankruptcy, claims should be filed to the
administrator / liquidator.”

Other U.S. destinations included Boston, Detroit and Washington, D.C.
