Wizz Air Is Now Offering Flight Subscriptions

The budget airline Wizz Air is testing a first-of-its-kind subscription plan in the form of the new WIZZ Multi-Pass.

The airline is launching the subscription model in Europe for passengers on domestic routes in Italy and international routes to and from Poland, as part of its initial trial run.

The six-month subscription pass, which must be paid for in six fixed monthly payments, allows travelers to take either a one-way or return trip each month, the airline said in a press release. The new program is slated to kick off in May.

As part of the program, subscribers will be able to select from four different plan options. They include: ticket only; ticket and WIZZ priority; ticket and a 20 kg checked bag, or the most substantial package, which includes all of the elements already mentioned.

Those who purchase a subscription can book a flight right away when the subscription starts and take their first flight within five days. Subscriptions will start on the first day of the month and customers will be able to take flights starting on the sixth day of the month. Subscriptions will renew on the first day of every subsequent month for the duration of the six months.

“With WIZZ Multi-Pass, travelers get a fixed price for flights and additional products for the subscription period, a great opportunity ahead of a high summer season,” the airline said in a statement. “At the same time, there is no need to monitor prices and plan way in advance to secure cheaper flights; instead, it becomes very easy to hop on a flight to go to an important business meeting or a spontaneous city break.”

Those who hold a subscription pass will also be able to purchase additional add-on services when booking a flight, similar to passengers booking a regular ticket.

Wizz is one of many Europe-based budget airlines. Others include Ryanair, EasyJet, and Vueling.
