Wizz Air Baggage Fees (2026)

Wizz Air's free bag is a 40 × 30 × 20 cm, 10 kg under-seat carry-on. WIZZ Priority costs €10 to €60 online, and checked bag prices appear during booking.

Quick answer

Wizz Air's only free bag is one under-seat carry-on up to 40 × 30 × 20 cm and 10 kg, and a 55 × 40 × 23 cm, 10 kg trolley needs WIZZ Priority, which Wizz lists at €10.00 to €60.00 online or €65.00 to €75.00 at the airport. Checked bags (10, 20, 26 or 32 kg) have no fixed published price: the fee depends on season, how you pay and bag weight, and you see it during booking.

Why Wizz Air shows no fixed checked-bag price

Wizz Air says baggage fees depend on your travel dates (peak or low season), how you pay (online, Call Centre or airport), and the bag's weight and size. Its fees page currently lists no bag prices. To see the real price, start a booking for your route and date, or open "Manage luggages" in your WIZZ Account for an existing booking. Buying at the airport costs more, and a handling agent may add its own fee on top.

Which Wizz Air fare includes which bags

  • Basic: the free 40 × 30 × 20 cm under-seat carry-on only. No trolley, no checked bag.
  • WIZZ Go: adds a 20 kg checked bag and seat selection. Check your booking to see whether your fare includes a trolley bag.
  • WIZZ Plus: adds a 32 kg checked bag, WIZZ Priority (trolley, priority check-in and boarding), WIZZ Flex and premium seat selection.
  • WIZZ Smart: adds WIZZ Priority and seat selection. A checked bag is not listed.

Bought Go? The first checked bag is already included, so don't buy another by mistake.

How to avoid Wizz Air bag fees

  • Fit what you can into the free 40 × 30 × 20 cm bag and measure it packed. Wheels may add no more than 5 cm.
  • Need a trolley? Add WIZZ Priority online. The airport price range is higher (€65 to €75, compared with €10 to €60 online).
  • Weigh checked bags at home. Wizz Air says a €13 per kg surcharge is due at the airport if a bag weighs between 10 kg and 20 kg or between 20 kg and 32 kg, so check which bag weight your booking includes.
  • Adding bags to an existing booking later? You can only add the same bag type you already have (for example, more 20 kg bags).
  • Flying from Paris Beauvais (BVA), Cologne Bonn (CGN), Grenoble (GNB), Haugesund (HAU), Malmö (MMX), Milan Malpensa (MXP), Pisa (PSA), Stavanger (SVG), Trondheim (TRD) or Sandefjord Torp (TRF)? Bag fees there can only be paid by card.

What rides free besides the carry-on

You can bring a coat or blanket, a mobile phone, reading material and airside duty-free purchases. Infants get a free 40 × 30 × 20 cm bag (max 10 kg), food for the flight, and a foldable pushchair, pram, travel cot or car seat, taken to the aircraft door or steps and then stowed in the hold. A neck pillow is not a separate free item and must fit inside your bag. One foldable pushchair per child can be checked free.

FAQ

How much is WIZZ Priority?

Wizz Air lists WIZZ Priority at €10.00 to €60.00 when bought online or through the Call Centre, and €65.00 to €75.00 at the airport. It adds a 55 × 40 × 23 cm, 10 kg trolley bag to the free 40 × 30 × 20 cm carry-on, plus priority check-in and boarding. It's non-refundable unless the whole booking is cancelled.

How much is a checked bag on Wizz Air?

Wizz Air doesn't publish a fixed checked bag price. The fee depends on travel dates (peak or low season), how you pay (online, Call Centre or airport) and the bag's weight and size, with bag types of 10, 20, 26 or 32 kg. The price for your flight appears during booking, and airport prices are higher.

What bag is free on Wizz Air?

Every passenger can bring one carry-on bag up to 40 × 30 × 20 cm and 10 kg for free, and it must fit under the seat in front of you. A larger 55 × 40 × 23 cm trolley bag needs WIZZ Priority or a bundle that includes it.

Does WIZZ Go include a checked bag?

Yes. Wizz Air's Fares and Bundles page lists a 20 kg checked bag with WIZZ Go, plus the under-seat carry-on and seat selection. WIZZ Plus includes a 32 kg checked bag and WIZZ Priority, while the Basic fare includes no checked bag.

What is the Wizz Air overweight baggage fee?

Wizz Air charges a €13 per kg surcharge at the airport if a bag weighs between 10 kg and 20 kg or between 20 kg and 32 kg, so weigh bags before you leave. The heaviest checked bag type is 32 kg.

How many checked bags can I take on Wizz Air?

You can take up to six checked bags per passenger per flight. Up to three can be bought online when booking and the rest at the airport. Only one 10 kg bag is allowed per passenger, and each bag can measure up to 149 × 119 × 171 cm.

What happens if my Wizz Air cabin bag is too big?

Wizz Air says bags over the 40 × 30 × 20 cm carry-on or 55 × 40 × 23 cm trolley limits are charged extra fees, but it doesn't currently publish the amount. Adding WIZZ Priority before the airport is the published way to bring a larger bag into the cabin.
