「Time flies.」というのは実は「ことわざ」です。「光陰矢のごとし」に対応する物、と紹介されることも多いですね。この「fly」は「(時間が)飛ぶように過ぎる」(スーパー・アンカー英和辞典)という意味です。
★ have fun
「have fun」は「楽しむ」という意味です。「when you're having fun」で「楽しんでいるときには」、→「楽しんでいるときには時間は飛ぶように過ぎていく」となります。
〈例〉
I can't believe it has already been a year, time really flies when you're having fun!!→もう1年がたつなんて信じられない。楽しい時間は本当にあっという間。

"Wow, I had so much fun and the time went by so fast. "- This is just a casual statement about the time going by very fast. The word "wow" is just an interjection and it just means that you are amazed. You could use either this sentence or the one above. They should both suffice wonderfully.
It can be used as a greeting similar to 久しぶりです。So like a long time, no see or time has gone by fast since we last met a while ago.
Can also be used as a way of expression that you're enjoying what you are doing.
When we are having fun, we don't realise that the time is passing by us quickly. The problem is if we are not having fun it feels like the time is passing so slowly.
When we say the time "flies" we are comparing it to something that flies. That is to say it goes very fast
