MapoflyWhat a Wizz Air bag really costs
Of the four low-cost airlines we compare — Ryanair, Wizz Air, Volotea and Vueling — Wizz Air has the cheapest bag — 10 € typically — but the price ranges from 8 € to 138 €, and across 1,599 routes it still beats the fare 0% of the time.
Wizz Air What it actually costs you
The fare and the bag, added up. Fares are the ones collected last night on Wizz Air.
How they price it
Wizz shows the whole price list, with a minimum and a maximum for every weight band — more than Volotea does, which publishes the minimum alone. The catch is that the range is very wide, and the number on display is always the minimum — what you actually pay depends on the route, the season and how close to departure you are.
The prices, measured
| Weight | From | To |
|---|---|---|
| up to 10 kg, low season | 8 € | 105,50 € |
| up to 10 kg, high season | 9 € | 115 € |
| up to 23 kg, low season | 10 € | 112,50 € |
| up to 23 kg, high season | 12 € | 122 € |
| up to 32 kg, low season | 22 € | 128,50 € |
| up to 32 kg, high season | 26 € | 138 € |
| up to 26 kg, low season | 16 € | 120,50 € |
| up to 26 kg, high season | 19 € | 130 € |
A wide range is not vagueness on our part: it is the price genuinely moving from route to route and season to season.

The questions everyone asks
How much is a 10 kg bag on Wizz Air?
It starts at 8 € each way, per person. There is no single price: it moves with the route, the season and how close you book — the calculator above works it out for the route you pick.
How much is a 23 kg bag on Wizz Air?
It starts at 10 € each way, per person. There is no single price: it moves with the route, the season and how close you book — the calculator above works it out for the route you pick.
How do you pay less for Wizz Air baggage?
What our numbers can say: on 0 routes out of a hundred the bag costs more than the flight. When that happens it is worth checking whether another of Ryanair, Wizz Air, Volotea and Vueling flies the same route: with the bag counted the total often flips, and that is the comparison the map above makes. On the rest — what it costs to add it after booking, or one extra kilo at the gate — we have not measured, and we would rather not make it up.
