Cheap flights from Alexandria to Warsaw

October is the cheapest month on this route, and it is also one of the most comfortable times to walk around Warsaw. Fares are listed for September through January, plus March, May and August, so you can compare a winter break with a late-summer trip. Midweek departures usually cost less than Friday and Sunday flights, and the quiet weeks after the New Year holidays are often gentler on the wallet than the run-up to Christmas. Book a few weeks ahead for October, and earlier if you are travelling over Polish public holidays or the school summer break, when seats fill up fast.

Wizz Air Malta and Air Arabia are the low-cost names on this route, while Egyptair, Turkish Airlines, Qatar Airways, Aegean Airlines, Air Cairo, Fly Dubai, Delta Air Lines and American Airlines sell fuller fares. Direct flights between Alexandria and Warsaw exist, but plenty of itineraries connect: the Turkish and Gulf carriers take you through their home hubs, and the European and US carriers often add a stop before Poland. Low-cost tickets are built from extras, so read what each fare includes, from a cabin bag to a checked bag and seat choice, before you pay. On connecting itineraries, check whether the whole trip sits on one ticket or on two.

Warsaw has two airports, F. Chopin and Modlin, and they are not interchangeable. F. Chopin is the closer of the two to the centre, with the usual city transport links into town. Modlin sits farther out, and most travellers finish the journey with a shuttle or a bus. Check your booking before you fly, because both airports carry the Warsaw name and only one will be on your ticket. On the Egyptian side, flights leave from Borg el Arab, so allow time to get there from Alexandria before departure. If you land late, plan how you will reach your accommodation, since onward options thin out overnight.
