Wizz Air bagage allowence

Hi all

For the life of me I cannot find the normal bagage allowence for Wizz air.
BA is 23kg but what is Wizz air?

re: Wizz Air bagage allowence

Just checked the website and finally found that it is 32kg max per bag but no max number of bags per passenger??


Now we nearly always fly BA but this time its just silly money different or different country. Always well under the 23kg limit usually 18-20kg.

Anyway Im thinking could we as a couple take in 3 cases all well under 32kg but put the ski boots between the bags as thats our sole ski gear and by doing so avoid the Ski equipment additional fee??

re: Wizz Air bagage allowence

32kg is total , it states when booking , you pay a fee per bag , so take 3 bags with combined weight of say 30 , 3 fees

Is it ok to put ski boots within the case? rather than "SKI SPORTS equipement" extra cost?

re: Wizz Air bagage allowence

OK get you so provided I have 1 bag within the dimensions stated which could hold 32kg its 1 fee

Need to see if we can get 2 new suitcases for this... or simply pay the extra £12....

Did the sums on Wizz air Luton to Sofia 1.50am landing & 6am departing... £457 rtn for 2 plus £40 airport parking plus shuttle £70. Total £565.

Or BA Gatwick to Thessonoliki Greece 8.45am take off on Sat landing 2pm and departing 9.20am. Total Flight cost £450 including sensible hand luggage plus food & unlimited drink during flight.
Parking is free (friends with a drive) and the tfr to Bansko is £150.

Total difference is £50 between 2.. frankly to have 2 proper nights sleep is well ...

Total difference is £50 between 2.. frankly to have 2 proper nights sleep is well worth it plus of course free drink and food on plane and no worries re luggage.

Plus maybe Im a BA man but it a much nicer experiance.
