The airline WizzAir offers a unique subscription in Europe: unlimited flying, for only 499 euros per year. An offer that is a dream on paper, but which nevertheless poses several problems.
Travel as much as you want, in more than 53 countries in Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia or North Africa, all for only 499 euros per year… It’s the offer that would make any globetrotter dream. For a little more than 40 euros per month, WizzAir offers a subscription “All You Can Fly“: an “at will” aircraft concept, which however raises some questions.
If other subscriptions exist with airlines such as Air France for example, the Hungarian company is the first to offer this type of unlimited service in Europe. Already existing among certain American competitors – with the “GoWild! All You Can Fly” pass from Frontier Airlines for example – the principle of an all-you-can-eat air buffet is debated for many reasons. First, from an ecological point of view, at a time when climate change is one of the main global concerns. But in addition to making activists cringe, this package poses several problems for passengers themselves.
Already, the small details of the contract: planes can only be booked from 72 hours before departure (therefore impossible to plan a vacation in advance), and within the limit of available seats. There is therefore no guarantee, despite the 500 euros spent, of being able to board the chosen plane. In addition, and although its price has dropped by 100 euros compared to its launch in 2024, the subscription ends up costing more than one imagines, since each ticket reservation comes with a fee of 9.99 euros. For one round trip per month for example, this amounts to an additional 240 euros over the year. And of course, it’s also difficult to plan long stays, because you still have to add fees for checked baggage.
In addition to these numerous conditions, which already weaken the promise of this unlimited subscription, the reputation of the company itself leaves something to be desired. According to a report from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGAC) in 2022, WizzAir has a much higher customer dissatisfaction rate than other low-cost companies such as RyanAir or EasyJet for example. And this is because it does not always respect the rights of travelers, particularly when it comes to compensation for delay or cancellation of a flight. Several cases of unanswered complaints have been recorded by UFC-Que Choisir, which specifies that the French and British aviation regulatory authorities have already called WizzAir to order without success. Moreover, in November 2025, the company even received a fine of 500,000 euros from the AGCM (the Italian Competition Authority) precisely in relation to its “All You Can Fly” subscription. Italy indeed judges that WizzAir provided information “insufficient and ambiguous” to consumers, on the limits of this promotional offer.
If WizzAir’s offer seems attractive at first glance, you better think twice. It is therefore aimed more at spontaneous travelers, those who do not hesitate to leave on a whim, and above all, who are ready to accept these conditions and manage possible complications. For those who prefer a more planned travel experience without unpleasant surprises, it might be best to look at other options.
