Wizz Air deploys web check-in in Romania, introduces WIZZ Flex
Wizz Air has now fully deployed its web check-in service in Romania and also introduced extra flexibility to passengers’ booking options with WIZZ Flex.
Web check-in is now available for all flights departing from Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Tirgu Mures and Timisoara. More airports will be introduced in the upcoming weeks and the service will be fully deployed by 1 April 2010.
The web check-in is available at wizzair.com from seven days up to three hours before the scheduled departure time of the flight. The service does not impact on the rest of the boarding procedure as passengers are still requested to present themselves at the boarding gate no later than 30 minutes before the scheduled departure time of the flight.
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.
