WOW Air #1 Worst Airlines?




WOWAir might have you saying "Wow!" Just not in the way you want. Coming in at “No. 1” on the list of the worst airlines in the world…  Well, I would have chosen Ryan Air.  But no one asked me.
See how other airlines fared:

Lay-Offs
The Icelandic, ultra-low-cost airline, famous for selling $55 tickets from the US to Europe also laid off 111 employees in December.  The airline added that some contractors and short-term employees will not have their contracts renewed.  However, they are still having 1,000 employees.

The "Detroit News" Warns: 
6 things to know before flying WOW air


1. Carry-ons
While many airlines let you slide in with a roller bag and one personal bag, it won't fly on WOW air.  WOW Air only allows one carry-on the size of a purse or briefcase.  Passengers are also recommended to pack very light. A piece of checked baggage weighing over the 44-pound limit is an extra $20 per pound, according to the airline's website. 

2. The seats
The seats are arranged by a standard front, standard back, XL, XXL and Big Seat. WOW Air's selections only differ by leg room, not seat size.  The difference in dimensions is also less than a foot between them.  Standard seats are up to 31 inches of leg room, XL is up to 33 inches, XXL is 35 inches and a "Big Seat" is 37 inches.  Prices are not yet available for Big Seat fees, but others are a minimum $30 up-charge. 

3. Service on board
For flights lasting longer than six hours, airlines usually provide a meal, especially when crossing overseas.  Not WOW.  According to WOW's online menu, the cheapest sandwich is $10 and differs depending on where the flight is departing from.  Passengers are allowed to bring aboard their own food and closed-bottle beverages from the airport and should because WOW will not provide snacks or water.  Read the whole article:
