“I am proud to be the first Emirati national working for Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, the newest national airline of the UAE,” says Hiba Khalil, Wizz Air Abu Dhabi manager for aviation security and government affairs.

“Today’s National Day and Year of the 50th celebrations have showcased the bond that unites our nation and the incredible passion for success and progress that our beloved country represents.
