WOW airlines review?
Has anyone travelled via WOW airlines before? And if so, how was the experience. Their tickets seem very cheap.
There is a catch. You have to pay extra for baggage. Also, leg space is less than other flights. So make sure you add the baggage price when buying ticket.
Wow!
My complaint with them was when our flight got delayed they acted like chickens with their head cut off and no one knew anything. It was delayed two hours....but they didn't give us an update till an hour and 50 minutes that the plane was almost ready.
Not worth it unless you are broke
It's worth it if you're backpacking and are a light traveler. But yeah I'd not want to do it every now and then. And for long fights.
If you add back all the "privileges" you're used to the price is the same as ordinary airlines. but if you take nothing (no carry on no check in) and skip the meal and settle for a standard (narrow) seat, it's really cheap.
I only went once and had low expectations going in. I ended up having a positive experience. Read about the fine print first though.
Highly recommend it. Travel light, pack snacks, and enjoy a trip to Europe 50% cheaper than anything else. I got a same day one way flight from sfo to Paris for $250. Imagine if I bought ahead of time
What is WOW airlines? I thought we only had zeppelins in WOW ;)
Its not bad, but as others mentioned it’s a no frills airline and charge for everything. Food options are decent at Rey but expect to pay double to triple the normal cost of airport food.
They won’t give you anything for free, not even water. Reykjavik airport does not have any good food choices, so you need to load up on snacks before you board. The seats are pretty thin and quite uncomfortable. Flight attendant won’t talk to you unless you are buying something. But hey, it is very very cheap.
I thought the airport at Reykjavik had enough food choices. The rest is true. Even if you pay for a meal on board, it’s probably still cheaper than other airlines. The flights tend to be late to some degree
