Cheap flights from Bucharest to Szczecin

November is the cheapest month on this route, and the one to aim for if your dates are flexible. Fares also show up for September, October, December, January and April, so the calendar covers late autumn, the winter holidays and early spring. December and January fill up around Christmas and New Year, and April around Easter, when seats go early and fares climb; travel outside those weeks and you usually pay less. Compare midweek departures with weekend ones before you commit, and start watching prices a few months ahead rather than in the final weeks.

Every carrier on this route is a full-service airline, so there is no low-cost fallback: LOT Polish Airlines, Tarom, Lufthansa, Austrian, Swiss, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Air France, British Airways, Air Baltic and El Al Israel Airlines all show up in the results. Nothing flies non-stop, so your ticket is a connecting one, and the airline you choose decides where you change planes — usually its own hub. LOT Polish Airlines and Tarom sit closest to both ends of the trip; the western European carriers route you through their home bases instead. What is included depends on the fare family, not the airline, so check baggage and seat selection before you pay.

You land at Goleniow, the airport that serves Szczecin, and it sits outside the city, so allow time for the transfer instead of assuming you can walk to your hotel. Buses and rail link the airport with the centre, and taxis wait outside arrivals; check the last departure of the day against your landing time, because a late arrival can leave you waiting. A rented car makes sense if your plans reach beyond the city. On the way out, Bucharest uses a single airport for this route, Otopeni International, so there is no second one to mix it up with — arrive with time for check-in and security, and confirm which terminal your connecting carrier uses.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check the connection time at your hub, because a tight change is the airline's problem on one ticket and yours on two.
• Confirm what the fare includes, since a checked bag is not always part of a connecting full-service ticket.
• Have your passport and any visa or residence permit ready for Poland, and check the rules for the country where you change planes.
• Book the whole trip on one ticket where you can, so a delayed first flight does not leave you buying a new one.
• Watch the price calendar for November, the cheapest month here, and compare it with the other months shown before you commit.
• Allow a buffer at Otopeni International, Bucharest's only airport for this route.
