Cheaper Flights to Poland

Looking for advice on cheaper flights to Poland.

This past July I flew LOT directly from Chicago to Krakow at a price of around $1200. It was my first European trip and I used a travel agent for booking.

I'd like to return to Poland in September of 2007 - I think the prices are a bit cheaper at that time. I'd also like to book the flight(s) myself so I'd appreciate suggestions on ways to minimize the flight cost even more...what other European cities could I fly to and get a connector flight into Poland.

Thanks much in advance!

Yes, the airline tickets in September are a little cheaper than June-August, but not that much. If you're in Chicago I think you won't be able to get a whole lot better price; I would suggest regular sites like priceline.com or orbitz.com and take a flight to one of the European cities (eg. Munch or Kopenhagen) and from there connect to Poland -- these sites allow you to do it "automatically" if you select you want 1-2 stops.

I know that many Poles in Chicago buy tickets from Chicago to Poland via Polamer (I think it's polamertravel.com).

just go on line - try skyscanner.com

lots of really low cost airlines flying to Poland from the UK and flights from the states are pretty cheap to the UK too

Skyscanner is the site as mentioned. Here you will find every bargain available.
Anyone wanted good quality guest house accomodation with an English breakfast let me know. Fireside

i cant get glasgow(uk) to poland to come up

there is no poland there. the only 'p' that is there is for portugal

im confused ale jaja!!!!!!!!!

who.. you???

thats funny I get all my cheapo flights from skyscanner

thats funny because I just went on and they flight form glasgow to Krakow and it came up with ryan air they also fligh to Wroclaw from Prestwick with KLM

I always fly into Frankfurt. I also get the best deals using Lufthansa, but you have to book early and it's usually cheap off season. I'm flying there fir the new year and it's costing me $720

Are you using a MAC ? Or a non standard browser. Skyscanner does have problems if you step away from Explorer.
I am sure that Skyscanner does inlcude scans of Lufthansa but concentrates on Europe I believe.
Berlin is always cheap to fly to

my flights normally cost me somewhere in the region of 2p... return... mwuhhhahhha...

... not including tax... obviously...

Continental flies Newark to Cologne, Germany for a good rate. A short train ride to Dortman will get you an Easyjet flight to Krakow. It may not be the most convenient but may be the cheapest way to get there.

can sometimes be cheap. I have paid 90 pounds for a london to warsaw return flight before.

Try Wizzair, always good deals available. I've used it many times, always a pleasure!

operate to katowice at the moment 4 times a week from doncaster and from july 2007 will operate just as many flights to gdansk from doncaster

Flights to Poland

Hey Guys,

I have found this website go4cheapflights.com and it seems to be excellent site to book cheap flights to Poland.

Wherever you're going - Warsaw, Krakow, Gdansk, Katowice - just visit site and compare and book low cost flights.

I use esky.pl for some of my bookings.

I did a search on a random dates, a week apart, and got this:

Wylot
(Chicago, Illinois, United States of America - Warszawa, Poland / 18 Wrzesień, 2007)

Powrót
(Warszawa, Poland - Chicago, Illinois, United States of America / 25 Wrzesień, 2007)

Connect at Milan Malpensa (MXP)

2,481.00 PLN = 904.997 USD = 438.872 GBP

Hmm... How does one get to online from here?

Just to let everyone know. Ryan Air are currently offering 50% many of their flights.
This means I can go to Lodz and back for £17.38 (inc tax) ! !

Hope that helps. Happy flying.

i can get cheap promo flights from wizzair to gdansk .. katowice .. poznan and wroclaw (latter two from february 2008) from the airport an hour away from my house so i am cool :)

me and my daughter can fly to wroclaw for example:
1 Adult @ 0.49 GBP 0.49 GBP
1 Child @ 0.49 GBP 0.49 GBP
Taxes / Fees [details] 37.60 GBP
Price excluding payment handling fee 38.58 GBP

thats one way though :)

which i think is good :D

Gee guys you paid through the nose......return to Gdansk from Belfast with easyjet.........





wait for it.........





4p total...incl taxes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It wasn't advertised on their website and they seemed only to be available for a few days til they were snapped up...see my rational behind creating "sticky" threads!!!!

bargainlicious frank

If the city of your destination is in Western in Poland then you may want to consider flights to Berlin, and then a train from there to one of Polish cities. It's faster (and cheaper) tan flying to Warsaw.

WOW yup you win Frank ! :-)

I shall just have to hunt harder :-)

MW

I know...!!!!!.......I KNOW.........!!!!!!

And it woulda bin cheaper if they hadda served a deportation order on me ...and made it a one way flight!!!.........2 p.....!!....what a bonus for Poland!!!

Ryanair have some good deals from London to Krakow and other cities at present. they are 1p plus tax. Average price is around £35 return if you travel on certain days and off peak times.

True S...but we do need a sticky thread for these for the benefit of members of this board......what de ya think...for ALL the low costs......

Ryanair
Wizzair
Centralwings
Easyjet
Bmibaby
transavia
Norwegian air
Meridiana
Volareweb
Germanwings
Clickair
Blekingeflyg

The list may well be endless.......and we should include full fare.....rob you blind...Aer Lingus and British Airways as they do some value for money fares too!!

Airmiles flights for BA. Got zillions of the things. Only problem now is the taxes add up to more than the total cost of the budget boys. Only consolation is that I can sit up the front of the plane. Good idea for this one being sticky Frank

Glad to be of service Szarlotka........



And say one for communications.....phones...etc...always new deals...options.....both phoning too and from and within Poland........any more?

admin...come on.........!!!

Nice one !
How did you find out about it Frank.

On MSE, theres a local section for N Ireland..some one found it...alerted the rest of us and Bobs your Uncle!

Ideal reason for a sticky thread...people can see instantly whats going on and avail of some one elses vigilance!

i wish I knew what a sticky thread was :( guess its safe to assume some kind of thread that sticks around for a while?

Yes, it stays at the top of the page [in it's section] so that it is easily accessible/noticed. I think.

I just booked for Liverpool to Gdansk middle of January for £ 42 both ways. The flights were only £ 0.49 each way but tax after tax after tax bumped the price up. They even charge you for using credit and debit cards !!

Still, £ 42 is very cheap :)

very .. in my opinion mate .. :)

yeah it is the taxes etc that bump it up as i had £0.49 per ticket :)

easyjet is a pure joke looking £286 to fly to warsaw for 4days return thats 2people and wizzair doing the same but £64 return i know who ill be booking with!! any1 know any nice cheap hotels that they have stayed in before near otwock?

Where..? Who with.?
