On my way to plan my new vacation I said "let's try to see the prices for going home in august".
It's good to book early because, as usual, from one day to another the prices change (going up of course). Before going for the booking I saw a big ad saying that lower fare prices are available if you become a member of WIZZ Xclusive. What could be the harm in that? It's only £8.49 and the prices shown for members in my search looked promising.
I'm about to show you the screenshot of the search done before becoming a member, after becoming a member, and the search done by a friend after 2 minutes (a non-member).
In the first image the (first search before becoming a member) the price for the flight of interest was £67.99 and below that it shows £59.49 for Club members.
After becoming a member and doing the same search the second screenshot the price for Club members is showing as £67.99, reduced from £76.49. Wait a minute, doesn't that price sound familiar?
It is known that the price gets artificially inflated if people keep looking at the same flight, so maybe it is coincidence and the price has actually gone up. A non-member friend of mine did the same search and came up with this:
This is identical to my original search, with the price for non-members being £67.99.
I already have a very bad opinion about WizzAir, but I though this time would be different. Apparently I was wrong, this is nothing more than an outright con, exploiting customers and giving them nothing.
