As part of its commitment to reduce costs and offer cheaper fares to its passengers, Wizz Air will introduce an airport check-in fee from 1 April. Airport check-in purchased at the time of booking will cost €5 and €10 if purchased at the airport on the day of departure. The web check-in service is completely free.
Meanwhile, purchasing WIZZ Flex will allow passengers to change the date, time and routing of the flight, online and any number of times, up to 3 hours prior to the scheduled departure time. The change fee will not be charged however any fare difference must be paid.
WIZZ Flex can be purchased during the booking process for €10 per flight and per passenger.
