Man oh man, WOW Air is just slowly withering away. WOW Air has been on the verge of collapse for a while. At the beginning of November it looked like Icelandair would acquire WOW Air, though that deal ended up falling through. Now it looks like WOW Air may have just found a new investor,…

It´s such a shame. WOW flying into all these 2nd grade Midwest places did magic to the fares that legacy carriers would charge you to Europe. As far as I am concerned WOW could do a lot better, even though I´d never fly with them.
Haha it’s ironic they’re having a 50% sale when they’re in their current state....

"Tip of the hat to airberlin2017"
Is this to say they will suffer the same fate as AirBerlin 😉
OT: Evelyn Berezin died today. As well as being a pioneer in word processing she also worked with United on their early booking systems. http://www.computerhistory.org/fellowawards/hall/evelyn-berezin/
@John - Your comment pretty much sums up the problem. Great fares but for whatever the reason people aren’t buying them. I shop fares too but there is a floor to the level of service I’m willing to accept. WOW’s service offering falls below that level.
csr has insolvency protection so we can book the flight without worrying right?
does csr just refund the cost or they will rebook us onto another flight
Lucky have you ever noticed on Aeroplan's website under manage profile, towards the bottom there is a donation section called "one mile at a time" where you can sign up to automatically donate 2% of all miles earned in the future??
Had never heard about that... interesting
Hey Ben. If I have a flight booked in Jan does that mean it's cancelled? When I try to look for availability on the Wow air website it seems to show that it's "sold out or no flight"
I have a flight booked in Feb - return Keflavik to Chicago. And a connect flight from London. I guess I am toast now... Always knew this may happen. Booking 1 year in advance. I guess no compensation if they cancel now only refund if they don't go bust before issuing it.
My mother is booked on this flight in early Feb. Any suggestions on what we should do? Contact the airline? Or maybe start making an alternate plan?
Wow Air just laid off 111 staff, fleet to be reduced to 11 single aisle planes, cutting all A 330 destinations by January 2019
We flew wow from STL to Ryk to London in September and it was a great experience! So sad to read of their decline. It was lovely to have flights to Europe from Stl once again.
