Wizzair doubles down and relaunches all you can fly (costs more, but gets you off your first flight)

Wizz Air
Evidently Wizzair has realized that easy money can be made and so, 4 months later, he put his "all you can fly" subscription back on sale., almost with the same rules as the first edition. To avoid temptation I avoid putting the link to the initiative.
Only 10 thousand subscriptions available
In this article:
Which in a nutshell means for the company to put just under 6M euros in its pocket (at no cost), not a small amount of money considering that in return it will have no immediate charges and that the 10 thousand new subscribers, will always have to pay a minimum of another 9.99€ every time they decide to make a reservation, except the first one because magnanimously the Hungarian company decided to discount the first booking.
The rules are the same, so DO the math WELL.
It is important to carefully understand what you are buying and also what the additional costs will be for each ticket, in detail the important things to know are:
- You can only book in the last 72h before the flight (and it is not necessarily the case that all vacancies are made available to pass holders)
- Vale for international routes only, so you can't do Milan/Naples or anything like that
- Every time you book you have to compulsorily pay 9.99, then if you want priority boarding, trolley, seat, suitcase and anything else you pay like a normal reservation
- On the second NO SHOW, that is, the second time you do not show up at the gate triggers the company to cancel your subscription
- All terms and conditions can be consulted here
Why it is NOT convenient except for very few users
What if your next trip was because of points?

I would never do it, even less would I do it by shelling out 600€ for the subscription, at launch this summer it cost €499. Assuming you spend 40euro each way you have to, at a minimum, fly 15 times to amortize this expense. Sure 15 legs at 40€ may seem like a great price, but the point is that you will have to "hope" every time you book a one-way that you will also find a seat for the return, otherwise you will have to buy out of the all you can fly.
On top of that the fact that they are "forced" to fly Wizzair to recoup their investment forces them to have to travel where they fly, not where the passenger wants and without considering that competitors may have similar routes more cheaply.
I am not a Wizzair passenger, but the few times I have traveled I have never seen empty planes And the problem is just that. If the planes are always "almost" full, how often will you be able to find round-trip tickets with these rules? I would like to know if there are any subscribers in our community and their experience in these first 3 months of operation.
There is a super passenger who has already taken 38 flights
"Since the introduction of the program in August, 90% members have found seats on their desired flights. The most popular destinations have been Budapest, Abu Dhabi, London, Rome, and Bucharest. On average, pass holders made 2-3 trips in the past two months, with one traveler flying as many as 38 times thanks to All You Can Fly." the company explains in a note.
"In addition to offering a convenient way to explore Wizz Air's network, the program helps optimize aircraft fill in the last 72 hours before takeoff-this is essential for improving operational efficiency and reducing environmental impact," Wizzair concludes.
