WIZZ Air is relaunching its ‘All You Can Fly’ pass – but you might need to be quick.

The airline’s All You Can Fly pass was originally introduced last year, and has since returned.

Costing €499 (£438.24) a year, it allows travellers to fly to 34 destinations whenever they want.

On top of the yearly fee, there is a booking fee for each ticket of €9.99.

However, just 10,000 new passes will be available across 34 countries, so you might want to be quick.

The All You Can Fly pass sees subscribers flying on average nine times a year.

On Facebook, one user shared how they had only been using the pass for six months and had already saved €200 (£175.75).

One TikTok user called ‘adventurewithells’, who subscribes to the pass, shared a video on TikTok sharing how over the course of a year, she travelled on 28 flights to 14 countries.

This included some of her dream destinations that are usually more expensive to travel to, such as the Maldives (which has since been scrapped by Wizz Air), Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Tromso, Chisinau and Athens.

She did mention that there was some cons to the pass though, including that it is hard to coordinate with family or friends if they don’t have the pass themselves.

There is also no guarantee that certain routes will be available and travellers need to be very flexible and happy to visit anywhere.

She said: “If you live near a big Wizz hub such as London and are happy to have a bit of fun and see where you end up, then go for it.

“If you want to be able to plan in advance and only visit specific locations then skip.”

She also added that she will be renewing, as it is “more than worth it”.

In another video, the creator revealed that travellers can only book between 72 hours and three hours before the departure of the flight.

Sometimes this can be risky, as if you are returning to the UK more than 72 hours from the time of booking your flight out to a destination, you won’t be able to book it.

She advised: “Say you want to go on a weekend flight, you can book the outbound for Friday, on Tuesday, but the Sunday return flight you wouldn’t be able to book until the Thursday.

“So you either have to hedge your bets on the return becoming available or what I would do is wait until the Thursday, so I can book both legs at the same time and that way I know I am guaranteed a return.”

If there are multiple routes, then it is a little easier as there is more choice for booking flights.

Senior chief commercial and operations officer, Michael Delehant said: “Despite a challenging economic environment where most prices are rising, we’ve continued to provide affordable travel options, offering customers the opportunity to travel for the cost of a pair of sneakers.

“This reflects our ambition to redefine the meaning of low-cost travel.

“We believe affordable prices should be matched with high quality operations and customer service – and we’re delivering.

The airline also confirmed that this summer was its best on record, with improvements across on-time performance, flight completion and turnaround times – with 1,000 flights a day.

He added: “We’re not only making improvements; we’re going further and expanding our offering for customers.

“In the past six months we’ve introduced 250 new routes and launched a range of exciting new products which are already revolutionising the customer experience.”
