Wizz Air to Launch All You Can Fly 2.0 After Success of First Scheme
Wizz Air is set to launch “All You Can Fly 2.0,” following the success of its initial scheme in August 2024, which sold out in just 48 hours. CEO József Váradi confirmed that the new offer will increase the number of passes available to 15,000, up from the 10,000 sold previously. For a single purchase, passengers will enjoy unlimited travel with Wizz Air for 12 months, starting from the launch date.
In an interview with The Telegraph published on November 10, 2024, Váradi shared that the original “All You Can Fly” promotion had generated massive demand, exceeding expectations. “We are working on an ‘All You Can Fly’ 2.0 and we should have some news within weeks,” Váradi said, emphasizing that the new scheme will offer significant benefits both for consumers and the airline. “It’s a win-win,” he added.
The promotion has attracted its share of criticism, particularly from environmental groups and passengers who faced challenges booking flights. However, it has found a loyal customer base, including leisure tourists, business travelers, and digital nomads, who appreciate the flexibility and low-cost nature of the offer. Many participants are willing to book last-minute flights and are not tied to specific destinations, making the deal even more appealing.
Despite initial concerns that the scheme might not be financially viable, Váradi explained that the offer has proven to be profitable. “Members are filling seats that would have flown empty, which is a great deal for both consumers and us,” he said. The airline has learned from the initial launch, adjusting the scheme to accommodate a larger group of passengers while ensuring its financial success.
The pricing structure for the new “All You Can Fly” 2.0 has not yet been confirmed, but the initial offering in August 2024 was priced at €599 ($556) per pass, with early bird discounts available. The package did not include additional services like checked baggage, but a €10 ($11) booking fee was applied to each reservation.
While some industry figures, like Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary, have dismissed the offer as a “marketing scam,” the response from consumers has been overwhelmingly positive. With systems now being upgraded to support the increased demand, Wizz Air is preparing for the next phase of its popular promotion, expecting to reach 15,000 new customers.
The airline’s ability to generate excitement through creative promotions and its understanding of customer behavior have contributed to the success of this initiative. The launch of “All You Can Fly 2.0” marks another chapter in Wizz Air’s efforts to continue attracting passengers and build brand loyalty, offering a win for both the airline and its loyal flyers.
