Cheap flights from Amsterdam to Gdansk

December is the cheapest month on this route, and it is also a month of family visits, so if your dates fall near Christmas or New Year, book earlier rather than later. Prices are listed from September through July, which lets you weigh autumn, winter and spring departures against summer ones. Midweek flights usually cost less than Friday and Sunday departures, and with a connection in the itinerary it pays to leave a comfortable gap between the two legs. If your plans are loose, Warsaw and Krakow are the other Polish cities with flights from Amsterdam.

No airline flies this route nonstop, so every option here is a connecting itinerary. Low-cost carriers such as Easyjet, Norwegian, Norwegian International and Cityjet tend to sell the fare on its own, with checked baggage and seat selection added at the booking stage. Full-service names — KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, LOT Polish Airlines, Scandinavian Airlines and Lufthansa — usually include a checked bag and put you on one ticket end to end, which matters if a delay eats into your connection. Air Dolomiti and Lufthansa City Airlines appear as regional partners inside the Lufthansa network, so one leg is often on a smaller aircraft.

Gdansk Lech Walesa Airport is the airport you land at, and it sits outside the city rather than in it, so plan a transfer for the last stretch of the trip. Rail, bus and taxi services all link the terminal with central Gdansk, and the choice usually comes down to how much luggage you are carrying and what time you land. On the Amsterdam side you leave from Schiphol, the city's only airport, so there is no second departure point to check. If your itinerary connects, watch the transfer airport as well, because that is where a tight change will bite.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check that you are flying from Schiphol, the only Amsterdam airport, so there is no second departure point to confuse.
• Confirm whether your fare includes a checked bag, because the low-cost carriers on this route usually sell baggage separately.
• If you build the connection from two separate tickets, treat each leg as its own journey and leave plenty of time between them.
• Look up the entry rules for Poland and make sure your passport or ID card is valid for the whole trip.
• Remember that December is both the cheapest month and a busy family-travel month, so book early if your dates sit near the holidays.
• Use the price calendar to compare September through July before you commit to a date.
