Layoff history
Kiwi.com laid off about 250 employees, roughly a third of its workforce, on January 29, 2026, the Brno-based online travel agency's second major round of cuts since 2024. CEO Oliver Dlouhy announced the reductions internally and on LinkedIn, casting them as a step toward a leaner, more agile organization. "Our goal is to continue offering the lowest fares while giving customers peace of mind with every flight they book," he said. "Delivering both, at scale and over time, requires clear priorities, fast execution, and a structure designed to support the next phase of Kiwi.com." The cuts, which spanned multiple markets and departments, aimed to stabilize finances after consecutive years of losses dating back to the pandemic, as the company known for its virtual interlining technology shifts toward formal airline partnerships.
