Cheap flights from Billund to Krakow

April is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar runs from September through to April, plus June and July. Spring and early autumn are usually calmer and cheaper than the summer school holidays, when Danish and Polish families travel at the same time. Midweek departures tend to cost less than Friday and Sunday flights, and booking a few weeks ahead leaves you more connecting options rather than fewer. Watch Polish public holidays and the weeks around Christmas and New Year, when fares climb.

No airline flies Billund to Krakow nonstop, so every itinerary here involves at least one change of plane. Norwegian is the low-cost name on the list, while Scandinavian Airlines, LOT Polish Airlines, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and Lufthansa are full-service carriers whose fare families differ in what they include. Wider, DAT LT, HOP!, Air Dolomiti and Braathens Regional Aviation usually appear on the regional legs of longer routings. Check which airline operates each leg, and how long the layover is, before you choose.

Krakow's airport is Balice, the city's commercial gateway, and it sits a short ride from the centre rather than far out in the countryside. A train and bus lines link the terminal with the city, and taxis and ride-hailing cars wait outside arrivals; the train is the simplest way in if you land during the day. Late-night arrivals leave you with buses, taxis or a pre-booked transfer, so check the last connection before you commit to a flight. Allow extra time on the way back, since Balice handles a lot of seasonal traffic.
