Can I get a refund or change prepaid baggage?

WIZZ Priority is non-refundable. Prepaid checked baggage is generally non-refundable on voluntary cancellation. If the airline cancels the flight, baggage fees are refunded as part of the booking refund. For name changes, baggage cannot be transferred to another passenger — contact the Call Centre.
