Review of Wizz Air flight from London to Brno in Economy

Hello everyone. With a few weeks delay I´m back here to report returning leg from Luton to Brno on our trip to London in May.
The previous leg is covered here http://flight-report.com/en/report-7007.html
Alarm went off at 4AM and soon we were on our way to Central London to catch our EasyBus to London Luton airport
EasyBus was as usual - tight as hell but at least a quick way for getting at the airport

Arriving at Luton at a pretty cold morning it almost felt like it was winter

My girlfriend hided in the terminal. I saw Monarch A320 parked next to a parking lot so I bravely decided to go closer and get some pictures. Their livery looks very nice in real life

Thomson B757 was parked next to Monarch

After few seconds I realized it´s hell of a cold out there and decided to go to terminal asap.
This was the only seating we found around the landside and it was not too much better compared to outside - a lot of cold wind was coming here from the doors.

Fortunately it was less than 2 hours for our departure so we just took a short walk around and then went to security. We had our boarding passes printed already since online check-in. For check-in at the airport Wizz charges 10EUR.

Security took about 15 minutes and I got it complicated because I forgot to take out a plastic bag with liquids from my baggage. So I gave it to the agent, he scanned it and let me go.
On our arrival few days before I liked the airport but this time I didn´t enjoy it at all. It really felt so low-cost. There were so many people on such a small place, no good views outside. Really not an airport to my tastes.

I hate these corridors and boarding gates at low-cost airports

There was already a long queue when we arrived at our gate. As Wizz still doesn´t operate allocated seating, buying a priority boarding for 4EUR is essential

Our bird for our flight to Brno. After spotting registration on the front gear it´s bad news for me. It´s HA-LWD and that´s the exact same aircraft I flew from Eindhoven to Brno back in January this year. It´s a first time this thing happened to me.
I started to feel pain in my knees when I remembered of seat comfort I experienced few months earlier.

But stop thinking negative, we´re still about to fly so let´s board!

Oooops!

The cabin itself looks nice and bright

Wizz seems to have a strong position here

As well as on my previous flight on HA-LWD some noises and cracks were heard during rotation which can disturb some of the less experienced pax

Climbing over cloudy England

We got ourselves two of these juices. Those are my favourite.
I also wanted to get myself model of Wizz A320 for 10EUR and with no cash remaining I wanted to pay with MasterCard, but card terminal denied it twice so bad luck for me. Or bad luck for Wizz?

Cruising over cloud-covered Europe
The flight itself was very uneventful and soon we were over Czech republic and started our descend towards Brno.

The city down here is Velka Bites, place where my girlfriend lives about 40km west of Brno. Maybe it´s going be my city as well in the near future.
I wanted to get some views of Brno and in the previous weeks this flight landed mostly from the east so I decided to take a seat on the right and this was a good choice that day

And the city itself on our arrival

Our destination - BRQ

We touched down gently on RWY 28 and braked heavily to exit runway as soon as possible

Because this CSA A319 was doing practice courses with touch and go on that day
I always like to see Czech airlines aircraft at Brno as they aren´t a frequent visitors

Disembarking. I saw captain leaving a cockpit and I thought I might try to ask if I can be allowed a cockpit visit for the first time. I asked young stewardess, she asked the FO and I got a positive answer - nice one

I spent only few seconds in the cockpit looked around and then hurried to the apron where my girlfriend awaited me. Next time I have to take my time

Last look at our bird

Then we went to a passport control which took only few moments, went out terminal and waited for public transport bus to city center. 20 minutes ride into city center costs huge 1EUR, just to let you know if you´re going to visit Brno one day :-)
