Baggage Rules

This is the most important section. Wizz Air is very strict about bag sizes. Exceeding dimensions even by a couple of centimeters may result in a fine at the boarding gate (from €50).

Hand Luggage and Checked Baggage

Baggage Type Max Dimensions Max Weight Cost Available For
Small Hand Luggage 40 x 30 x 20 cm 10 kg Free All passengers
Large Hand Luggage (Trolley bag) 55 x 40 x 23 cm 10 kg Paid (included in WIZZ Priority) Passengers with Priority service
Checked Baggage 149 x 119 x 171 cm 10, 20, 26 or 32 kg Paid (from €9 to €120) Purchased separately

Important: Wheels and handles of your suitcase must fit within the specified dimensions. Calibration frames are installed at the airport—your backpack must fit freely inside.

Frequently Asked Questions About Baggage

  • How much does it cost to add baggage?
    Prices are dynamic and depend on season, route, and time of purchase.
    • Online during ticket purchase: cheapest.
    • Online after purchase: more expensive.
    • At the airport: very expensive (up to €120 per bag).
  • Can baggage weight be combined?
    No. If two passengers each have 20 kg bags, they cannot take one 30 kg and one 10 kg suitcase. Each bag is weighed separately.
  • Liquids and laptops:
    • Liquids in hand luggage: only in containers up to 100 ml (if the airport is not equipped with new 3D scanners).
    • A laptop counts as part of your hand luggage. If you have a “Basic” fare (only a 40x30x20 bag), the laptop must be inside this bag, not in a separate sleeve.
  • Sports equipment:
    Transporting skis, snowboards, bicycles, or golf sets requires an additional fee. Fixed price — around €45–€65 per item (if paid online). Weight must not exceed 32 kg.

Check-in

Wizz Air fines passengers who fail to complete online check-in. Pay close attention to deadlines.

  • When does check-in open?
    • 30 days before departure: If you bought a seat (paid seat selection).
    • 24 hours before departure: If you did not buy a seat (free random seating).
  • When does check-in close?
    Online check-in closes 2–3 hours before departure.
  • Boarding pass:
    Recommendation: Always screenshot your boarding pass or save the PDF to your phone in case of internet issues. Some non-European airports still require a paper printout.
  • Airport penalty:
    If you fail to check in online, check-in at the airport counter costs about €40 per passenger.

Fly with peace of mind with Zbor.md: We remind our customers about check-in rules so you can avoid unpleasant fees.

Booking Management and Refunds

Wizz Air’s policy is typical for low-cost airlines: tickets are cheap, but changes are expensive.

  • How to change the date or flight?
    Change fee (around €30–€40) + price difference between the old and new ticket. Often it’s cheaper to buy a new ticket than to modify an existing one.
  • Mistake in name/surname:
    • Full name change costs money (from €45).
  • Ticket refunds:
    • Basic fare tickets are non-refundable. Money is not returned if you change your mind about traveling.
  • If the airline cancels the flight:
    1. You will be offered rebooking to another flight (free).
    2. Or a refund of 120% of the ticket price to your Wizz account (credits).
    3. Or a 100% refund to your card (may take time).
