Wizz Air - Book Flights Reviews

by Unhappily Updated

The only reason to get WizzAir is because wizz air are terrible and make you pay 35€ for a printout of your boarding pass in the airport. They are abusive and I would recommend against purchasing from them without looking for how they are going to screw you over.

In WizzAir , the option to download a boarding pass never works and one has to use a browser window. Very frustrating to have such basic functionality fail on every attempt.

Absolutely terrible, I don’t even know where to begin. You cannot download you pass only off of WizzAir . You will have to PAY to be seated next to the person you’re flying with, even if you are a club member, book off the same account and are a priority flyer. Absolutely unacceptable, additionally when you try to contact them you have to pay and they do not answer emails promptly at all. By all means avoid flying with this airline even if they are cheap. Terrible service. Worst I have ever flown with and I frequently fly (1-2 times a month)

Wizz Air sold us tickets but it turns out that the flight was overbooked so we were denied passage at the gate, and unfortunately it also told us that flights for the next day were also overbooked, which is something it should have told us from the start rather than selling us tickets and telling us that we should submit a ticket to get a refund. This business of selling tickets even when the flight is already full is absolutely predatory and needs to have legal repercussions

I haven’t even flown with Wizz yet, but if my experience with their app is any indication as to the what it will be like then I am not looking forward to it. When I think about the functionality of a mobile airline application, the most basic function possible is online check-in. Literally the only reason I got WizzAir in the first place. WizzAir couldn't even pull up my booking - it just times out repeatedly.

Hope your planes work better than your app does, Wizz.

this app app: Amateurish setup! Could be so much better.

this app flights: during so called “high season” just as expensive (if not more) than major airlines!

this app in-flight service: You’ll be greeted with friendly smile and garbage filled seat pockets! They don’t stop selling various crap during almost ENTIRE flight!

I joined “the members club” to save $10 on each ticket but they charged me €37 for onsite “check-in”! In this time and age, when check-in takes few seconds!

Your little hand-bag may or may not be allowed inside the plane, even if it fits the measurements. Pay extra €8 to make sure it won’t get checked inside the cargo compartment for later claim.

Unlike major airlines you’ll have No merci on even slightest miscalculation on your luggage weight!

Does not work at all on my iPad - continually crashes. On iPhone it took many many tries before boarding pass would actually appear on the screen. Then does not save boarding pass to Wallet. Difficult to figure out how to check in when you don’t want to purchase a seat or baggage. And this doesn’t take into account all the issues mentioned by previous reviewers. WizzAir is the least likely to win a user friendly award.

WizzAir doesn’t work properly. When I try to get the boarding card into the wallet it says:
“Something bad happened”
Yeah, it’s obvious something bad happened: I had to book wizz air. That’s as bad as it gets, but why can’t the wallet app access the boarding card?

Only airline that struggles with this. Tickets are expensive (more expensive now that regular non low fare airlines) but the service provided is aweful. App terrible. Amateurs

by Johnson4o

WizzAir doesn’t even let you add your boarding pass to wallet. What year is this software stuck in that it thinks I need to print a boarding card?? Truly a miserable experience having to fly with Wizz, nothing makes me wish I was rich more than the desire to avoid this company.

I have iPhone 6, and since the last update I am not able to open WizzAir properly. Thats because it freezes as soon as app shows that wizz picture with a planes wing, and it stays like that for at least 30 seconds (I didnt wait more).

I never got email saying I need to check in online. I got airport 2 hours early, check in line was long and by the time I was help it was 1hr 37min left for flight. I get there to check in and they were like I have to pay $60 because check in close and I needed to do it online. This is my first and last for Wizz airline

My friends and I were traveling as a group from Luton to Italy. One of my friends checked in and when we arrived at the air port Wizz Air representatives stated that he did not check in and charged him, his wife, and his son around £100 to fly. Myself and another one of my friends checked a bag in coming back from Italy. However, once we arrived at the airport the representatives informed us that our bags were not checked in. I was charged £35 and my bank statements showed me that I paid for the original check in. I was charged twice for my bag. I would advise everyone not to use WizzAir as you will get unexpected charges.

Filed with name and check mark do not react on tap! I’m the passenger - impossible to uncheck Logout and and app reinstall - did not helped
Can’t buy tickets for family members

by AntonStr

You fixed a lot in WizzAir , but you can’t let it keep crashing for a month and not deploy a fix.

by Sgmiller

No Idea about all the complaints so far for me it works perfectly… I will continue to monitor.

by Matyas B.

Note: I purchased the flight from a computer (I didn’t try it from WizzAir ), but after that my flight was visible in WizzAir , I could check in without any problems (48 hrs before the flight), I could download my mobile boarding pass and add it to my IOS wallet. At the airport I never had any issues with my mobile boarding passes, if you have this ready, you won’t pay any extra fees.

I’m not sure why WizzAir has such mediocre reviews- it is SO HELPFUL. First of all, it is very easy to use (at least on my iPhone). The layout is simple and I was able to easily find my booking here, even though I booked through a different site. They also give a timeline of when you should get to the airport, check in, etc and offer transportation options. The mobile/online check in and boarding passes make everything so simple. I wish every airline had an app like this!

by JanuszM

I already had a booked flight and only then downloaded WizzAir . It alowed me to add bagage, pay for it, check in all the passengers and add the boarding passess to the Apple Wallet.

by Gunnimar

Quick and easy selection of flights and amenities. Very easy to use.

by ::n3o::

Simple. Checks you in, gives you a digital boarding pass, make modifications to your itinerary & gives info about flight with some additional bells and whistles of side bookings. Lots better alternatives to the savvy. But gets the job done to check you in to save time & money, which can be better spent such as a night at a wonderful restaurant with your partner. They'll appreciate you 🖖

This is a great site for telling you when to buy tickets but if you book thru WizzAir all your flights will be messed up ... my connecting flight in London was all wrong not because of the airline the fault was with hopper same on my next flight with Wizz would not let me online check in and cost me a extra $40 and delayed my check in process Never Never book on Hoper web site or app I learned the hard way!!
