There is an official statement about this on the Sky Europe website, but only in the Polish version:

The reason is that they are opening a new base in Prague, and have to move two planes there. Wizz Air, their competitors, seized the opportunity, and published a statement as well:

Much of what Wizz Air says is not true, though. In spite of the cancellations, Sky Europe will open a number of new destinations from Krakow, so they aren't "downscaling its Polish operation". Wizz Air did not offer any additional free tickets for the stranded passengers, and it wasn't possible to book them on their website. Besides, WizzAir isn't any better: they cancelled a lot of routes in the past, and I was among those that were affected.
