Isn't wizz air EU based?
Great news for UAE day trippers and people on extreme budget with laptop or hand bag only
Wizz is good if you just want to travel with no frills, but you get what you pay for. even water is paid for commodity on Wizz flights

Once you add bags, seats, extras, it can add up to same or more than full service airlines.
Wizz are receiving their A321 long range NEOs this year and they will be starting Rome to AUH flights from summer season. this connection could work for budget travelers but its worth bearing in mind that Wizz don't offer airside connections as their flights are point to point. Passengers would need an entry visa for UAE, pass out through immigration, re-check in ,pass back in through immigration to make a connection to PK
Yes, the parent company is Hungarian based, but the shares of wizz air are listed on the London stock exchange (which is now Non-EU after Brexit). They have various operating companies such as Wizz air Malta, and Wizz air Abu Dhabi.
