The decision comes after a successful trial period at 6 bases and strong demand from passengers seeking additional comfort without premium fares. The full rollout started on 9 February, making the service available on routes where it has not yet been offered.

WIZZ Class was initially introduced on selected flights to and from Budapest, Bucharest Otopeni, Warsaw, London Luton, London Gatwick, and Rome Fiumicino, where uptake exceeded expectations – particularly among business travellers looking for more space and a smoother onboard experience.
With WIZZ Class, passengers enjoy a reserved empty middle seat in the first row (1B and 1E), providing extra personal space and a more comfortable environment to relax or work. As the first row also offers additional legroom, the service enhances comfort while maintaining Wizz Air’s efficient single-class cabin layout.
WIZZ Class can be purchased as an add-on during the booking flow when selecting Smart or Plus bundles, which already include priority boarding and a 10 kg carry-on suitcase. In addition to the reserved middle seat, WIZZ Class customers receive a complimentary non-alcoholic drink and snack.
Unlike traditional business-class products, WIZZ Class requires no costly cabin redesign. By simply blocking two middle seats, Wizz Air delivers a more spacious experience while preserving the high-efficiency configuration that keeps fares low.
