Whizz on Wizz Air

I vowed a few years ago that never again would I venture on board a lo-cost airline and then this weekend I found myself boarding a Wizz Air plane destined for Zagreb from Lorraine Chases’ Luton airport.

I haven’t had the pleasure of traversing the concourses of Luton airport for some years and was actually a seemless exercise. I grabbed a paper and a coffee, made my way to the departure gate, one of the last to board and bagged an aisle seat in row 3…result.

The aircraft was pleasantly not designed by the Little Tikes team (unlike the Ryan Air fleet). Leather seat and a decent seat pitch and the crew suitably attired and very pretty (male readers take note!!) not adorned in fluorescent orange only to be subdued by wearing the darkest of designer shades.

Only one walk past with the trolley for refreshments and not bombarded with hi shrills from the cabin crew if I would like a manky old £5 sandwich, goods from the in-flight magazine and any other money grabbing scheme.

All of the above for the average return flight around £50, I have to say Wizz Air was win air and I would more than happily use them again….oh hang on I am!
