Looking at joining the Wizz Discount Club by Wizz Air? I’ve been a Wizz Discount Club member on and off since 2017, and it’s saved me a lot of money on Wizz Air flights.
The Wizz Discount Club is an annual subscription that helps you save on Wizz Air flights and extras. The subscription is available in two formats:
- Standard (€34.99 per year)
- Group (€69.99 per year)
Both Wizz Discount Club Standard and Group have the same benefits. However, the benefits in Standard can only be used by you and one companion, while in Group, the benefits can be used by you and five companions.
As such, the Wizz Discount Club Standard is best for couples, and the Wizz Discount Club Group is best for families.
The Benefits of the Wizz Discount Club
There are two key benefits to signing up to the Wizz Discount Club:
- €10.00 discount on flight fares from €19.99
- €5.00 discount on checked-in baggage purchased online
There are some other benefits. However, these apply to anyone (paid or unpaid) who creates a Wizz Air account.
Is the Wizz Discount Club Worth It?
The cost of joining the Wizz Discount Club doesn’t always seem worth it—and sometimes that is the case. Here are some different scenarios to show you whether you would save money by joining:
For Solo Travellers
If you travel solo, the Wizz Discount Club Standard, at €34.99, is worth it if you plan to fly with Wizz Air at least four times in one year. That’stwo return flights.
That’s because if all fares are above €19.99, you’ll save €10.00 on each flight, or €40.00 in total.
For Couples
If you’re a couple, the Wizz Discount Club Standard at €34.99 is worth it if you both plan to fly with Wizz Air at least twice in one year.That’s one return flight.
That’s because if all fares are above €19.99, you’ll save €10.00 on each flight, or €40.00 in total.
For Families
If you travel as a family of three, the Wizz Discount Club Group, at €69.99, is worth it if you all plan to fly at least twice in one year with checked luggage. That’sone return flight.
That’s because if all fares are above €19.99, you’ll save €10.00 on each flight, or €60.00 in total. Plus, you’ll save €5.00 on a checked bag or €10.00 return.
Alternatively, the Wizz Discount Club is worth it if you plan to fly as a family at least three times with hand luggage only.That’s one return flight and one one-way flight.
That’s because if all fares are above €19.99, you’ll save €10.00 on each flight, or €60.00 on the return flight plus €30.00 on the one-way flight.
If you travel as a family of four or more, the Wizz Discount Club Group at €69.99 is worth it if you all plan to fly at least twice in one year.That’s one return flight.

My Wizz Discount Club Experience
I’ve been a Wizz Discount Club member on and off since 2017. Here’s how I benefited from the Wizz Discount Club over one year, from 2022 to 2023.
I joined the Wizz Discount Club as a Standard member when buying flights from Leeds to Warsaw.
The flights were set to be £21.99 each way, £87.96 return for myself and my partner. However, if I joined the Wizz Discount Club, the price dropped to £12.99 each way, which worked out to £51.96 return for the two of us, a saving of £36.
Joining the Wizz Discount Club as a Standard member cost £31.50, bringing the total amount payable to £83.46.
Straight away, on one return flight, I’d saved money by joining the Wizz Discount Club.
I didn’t need to fly Wizz Air again over the next 12 months to ‘make back my investment’ into the Wizz Discount Club, but I did.
I flew solo from Luton to Budapest, which should have cost £26.99 but cost me £17.99 as a Wizz Discount Club member.
From Budapest, I then flew to Milan on a flight that should have cost 16,590 Hungarian Forint (around £36) but cost me 12,440 Hungarian Forint (around £27).
Before flying back from Milan to London Gatwick for €21.99 (around £19) on a flight that should have cost €31.99 (around £28)
As such, in one year, being a Wizz Discount Club Standard member saved me £31.50.
