Wizz Air will trial a new premium product, “Wizz Class,” on select routes from December, offering blocked middle seats, priority boarding and extras aimed at business travellers. The test will focus in the forward cabin as the carrier gauges demand for faster boarding and more onboard space.

Briefing
The trial is a direct attempt to capture higher‑yield business travellers by adding a mid‑tier premium option — part of a broader push by LCCs to capture higher‑yield demand (Eurowings' Premium BIZ).
The move comes as Wizz pursues commercial and operational restructuring under its published turnaround efforts, signalling revenue diversification beyond base fares (Wizz Air CEO turnaround plan).
It mirrors other carriers reconfiguring cabins and monetising seat features — developments that influence retrofit programs, ancillary revenue and fleet utilisation strategies (WestJet cabin refresh and seat monetisation).
