Wizz Air announced an All You Can Fly package for €499 ($550). The Budapest-based budget airline launched this subscription service to cater to frequent travelers who want to take advantage of the appeal of unlimited flights.

However, in true budget airline fashion, there are several caveats worth noting about this deal. Let’s take a look.

Wizz Air Subscription Has Unlimited Flights

The title isn’t deceiving: You can get unlimited one-way flights on Wizz Air for the next 12 months for roughly $550. The price increases on Friday, August 16 to €599 ($660).

You can fly anywhere in the Wizz Air network, which has a wide reach throughout Europe and the Middle East.

Keep in mind the promotion comes with several rules to take into consideration before signing up:

Each booking is subject to a €9.99 ($11) fee.
You can only bring a personal item on board. Anything extra requires additional payment.
Tickets are only available within 72 hours of the flight and are subject to availability.
You can start booking flights on Wednesday, September 25.
If you miss 3 flights, your membership can be terminated.
The airline is offering 10,000 memberships at this time.
The pass auto renews every year unless you cancel beforehand.

However, if you need to book a return flight and there isn’t any availability within the 3-day booking window, Wizz Air says you can opt for the regular booking process outside of the subscription.

This promotion likely won’t bring too much value to flyers. It would take a unique traveler with a flexible schedule and flies often enough to make the subscription cost worth it.

Hot Tip:

In the U.S., Frontier Airlines has a similar all-you-can-fly passes available for fall and winter travel. Travelers can visit more than 85 destinations, including international cities across Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central America.

What To Keep in Mind When Flying Budget Airlines

Budget airlines have a unique way of pricing out their tickets. They offer record-low prices for their seats and then nickel-and-dime customers throughout the checkout process.

If you decide to fly with a budget airline like Wizz Air, there are a few things to keep in mind:

When you purchase online, they will make you multiple offers to book everything for your trip through them. This is likely not the most price-efficient way to book your trip, and you may not be able to take advantage of any loyalty status you may have.
Baggage will be quite expensive — if you can, travel light with a backpack like I do.
Always book your flights using a credit card with travel insurance in case of delays or cancellations.
Bring your own entertainment and food. They likely won’t have in-flight screens or free snacks to munch on. Whenever I fly budget airlines, I always bring my refillable water bottle with water in it as they sometimes charge for it.

Final Thoughts

This isn’t the first subscription package from a budget airline, and it certainly won’t be the last. However, these packages likely won’t be worth it for the majority of people, unless they happen to align with your upcoming travel plans.
