Cheap flights from Mulhouse-Basel to Krakow

November is the cheapest month on this route, and the quieter weeks around it usually undercut the summer rush. Late autumn and the stretch after the end-of-year holidays tend to be calmer and cheaper than July or the run-up to Christmas, when both cities fill up. Midweek departures and Saturday-to-Monday pairs are gentler on the wallet than Friday evenings. Prices are shown for every month of the year on this page, so line your dates up against the calendar before you commit to a fare.

Wizz Air and Wizz Air Malta cover the low-cost side of this route, together with EasyJet, EasyJet Europe and EasyJet (DS), while Vueling Airlines shows up on some dates. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Lufthansa and Norwegian, including Norwegian International, are the full-service names you will see here, and those often mean a connection rather than a nonstop. A low-cost ticket keeps the base fare down but charges separately for checked bags and usually for seat choice. Full-service fares generally include more, though the exact allowance depends on the ticket you pick, so read what is bundled before comparing totals.

You land at Balice, the airport serving Krakow, and it sits outside the city rather than in it, so the transfer into town is part of the plan rather than an afterthought. Trains and buses link the airport with the centre, and taxis or ride-hailing are the other common option, faster but dependent on traffic. If you land late, check the last public transport runs of the day before you count on them, because the gap between an evening arrival and the final departure can be tight. Travellers heading on beyond Krakow use the same airport, so allow a little room in your schedule either way.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm your departure airport is Basel–Mulhouse EuroAirport before you plan the journey to the terminal.
• On a low-cost ticket from Wizz Air or EasyJet, add the cabin and checked bag you actually need and look at the total.
• If your itinerary puts you on KLM Royal Dutch Airlines or Lufthansa, check whether it is a nonstop or a connection with a layover.
• When you book legs on separate tickets, leave a generous gap in case the first flight runs late.
• Check the entry rules and ID requirements for Poland for your nationality well before departure.
• Compare your dates against the November fares and the rest of the calendar, since the shoulder months often beat summer.
