Wizz Air - PO51WNF - 08 Jun 2016 Might be flying with Wizz Air in the summer, has anyone ever flown with them? Thoughts/opinions? I've only flown with Easyjet so far, so have yet to experience a low cost airline RE: Wizz Air - NK53 TKT - 09 Jun 2016 (08 Jun 2016, 8:09 pm)PO51WNF wrote Might be flying with Wizz Air in the summer, has anyone ever flown with them?

I'm a bit nervous as I've never flown on my own before RE: Wizz Air - NK53 TKT - 13 Jun 2016 (13 Jun 2016, 4:33 am)PO51WNF wrote Thanks for that. I'm a bit nervous as I've never flown on my own before Just think of it as going on a train, just you get a better view. I have flown a lone before with BA using their skyflyer service to see my aunty in London. There is nothing scary about it unless you have a fear of flying. A fear of heights won't affect you at 35,000 feet RE: Wizz Air - 8222 - 13 Jun 2016 (12 Jun 2016, 7:03 pm)NK53 TKT wrote I thought you'd flown BA I have flown many airlines: BA Royal Brunei AeroMéxico British Airways Rossiya KLM Aeroflot MasWings Iberia Those were just what I would consider as low cost.

I'm often in the air : ![]() RE: Wizz Air - Andreos1 - 13 Jun 2016 A while ago, I started something off in the rail thread with the idea that I would plot it on a map and identify any trends. I never did it and haven't kept mine up to date at all. However, it may be worth someone doing similar in the airline thread, either for routes, aircraft or airlines. http://northeastbuses.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?tid=610 RE: Wizz Air - NK53 TKT - 13 Jun 2016 (13 Jun 2016, 6:42 pm)8222 wrote No no.

It's more the airport side of it that I'm nervous about, rather than the flight itself. I was proper nervous before flying to Iceland but I loved it once we took off. I'm unsure of where to go and what to do when I get to the airport (check-in, security, bag drop etc.....) and don't want to look like an idiot by going to the wrong place..... also the baggage rules really confuse me, like what you can take on the plane and what you can take in the hold RE: Wizz Air - NK53 TKT - 13 Jun 2016 (13 Jun 2016, 7:16 pm)PO51WNF wrote It's more the airport side of it that I'm nervous about, rather than the flight itself. I was proper nervous before flying to Iceland but I loved it once we took off. To outline it for you in simple terms: When you arrive: Check in and bag drop (unless you have checked in online and/or have hold luggage) Maximum hold luggage weight is 20kg ish.) Security you need to follow all instructions given to you and no liquids more than 100ml with a maximum weight of 5kg ish. After security do whatever you want in the airport such as shop or eat. I would arrive at least 2 hours before departure and for hold luggage, if in doubt just put it in the hold ![]() RE: Wizz Air - PO51WNF - 13 Jun 2016 (13 Jun 2016, 7:49 pm)NK53 TKT wrote To outline it for you in simple terms: Thanks for that, really helpful ![]() RE: Wizz Air - NK53 TKT - 14 Jun 2016 (13 Jun 2016, 10:22 pm)PO51WNF wrote Thanks for that, really helpful Correct ![]() RE: Wizz Air - JoshP - 24 Feb 2022 According to FlightRadar, 3 of Wizz Air's A320s are stuck in Kiev's Sikorsky Aiprort in Ukraine.
