Wizz Air Flight Change: A shift in travel plans makes a flight change unavoidable. This means you have to go through the entire process of changing your flight, reviewing the fees, and paying the applicable costs. This includes the flight change fee and any fare difference when the new fare is higher than the original fare. Are you booked on a Wizz Air flight and do you want to change your flight? If yes, here’s all you need to know about its flight change policy.

Flight Changes With Wizz Air

Wizz Air allows passengers to change the flight date, time, and destination of their flights. You have up to 3 hours before flight departure to change your flight.

The airline imposes a flight change fee when you want to change your flight. However, if you purchase the WIZZ Flex add-on, you do not have to pay these charges.

Also, if your name was entered incorrectly at the time of booking, you can sign in to your Wizz account to make the correction. The airline allows you to change a maximum of 3 characters of your name up to 3 hours before scheduled departure at no cost.

In case you want to change the traveler’s name completely, you have to pay the name change fee per ticket per passenger per flight.

Costs of Changing a Wizz Air Flight

If you want to change your flight without the WIZZ Flex add-on, you have to pay the following charges:

1. Fare Difference: The fare difference refers to the price gap between the original flight and the new flight, based on your fare type (Basic, Wizz Go, or Wizz Plus).

• You pay the fare difference when the new flight costs more than the initial flight

2. Flight Change Fee

The flight change fee is a separate charge per passenger, per flight. The amount depends on how close to departure you want to change your flight. The closer you make the change to your flight date, the higher the charges will be. Refer to Wizz Air’s official website for exact figures based on how far in advance of departure you’re making the change.
