Wizz Air announced 90% of its crew member workforce are now vaccinated.
It follows the passing of a 1 December deadline requiring flight and cabin crew to be vaccinated or get regularly tested at their own cost.
This is ahead of the average vaccination rate in most of its markets.
The policy does not mandate vaccination, however crew members who are not vaccinated will have to cover the cost of their own testing from December 1 onwards.
Unvaccinated crew members, who can provide medical proof of exemption, will be able take antigen/PCR tests on a regular basis.
Wizz Air also organised regular webinars and one-to-one consultations with virologists to educate its staff about the vaccines.
Johan Eidhagen, Chief People Officer of Wizz Air Group said: "We are pleased to announce that 90% of our flight and cabin crew members are already vaccinated. At the start of the pandemic, we led the industry with our stringent health and safety measures, as we fully understand the responsibility to protect crew and passengers onboard."
