Dentons has advised a syndicate of underwriters including BNP Paribas and JP Morgan on the second Wizz Air EUR 500 million issuance of 1% fixed-rate guaranteed notes due 2026. Reportedly, Clifford Chance and Ogier advised Wizz Air on the matter.

According to Dentons, “the notes were issued under Wizz Air's Euro Medium Term Note Program by the Wizz Air Finance Company and guaranteed by Wizz Air Holdings.”

Wizz Air is a Budapest-headquartered ultra-low-cost carrier. The company intends to use the proceeds of the issuance for general financing purposes.

Dentons previously advised the underwriters on Wizz Air's debut issuance in 2021 (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on January 25, 2021).

Dentons’ team was led by Partner Nick Hayday and included Senior Associate Victoria Wyer and Associate Zeeshan Hussain.
