Cheap flights from Copenhagen to Katowice

January is the cheapest month on this route, and also the calmest: the Christmas rush is over, the post-holiday lull sets in, and fares drop. Autumn comes next: September, October and November all price lower than the summer peak, and the weather in Silesia is still mild enough for walking. August is the busiest and most expensive month, so if your dates are fixed there, book early. Midweek departures usually cost less than Friday and Sunday ones, and school holidays in both Denmark and Poland push fares up. The calendar here shows fares for September through January, plus March and August.

Every airline selling Copenhagen to Katowice is a connecting option, so the real choice is where you change planes and what the ticket includes. LOT Polish Airlines connects through Warsaw, which keeps the whole trip inside the region. Scandinavian Airlines, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, KLM Cityhopper, Austrian, Swiss, Lufthansa City Airlines, Helvetic Airways and Cityjet fly the full-service model, where a carry-on and often a checked bag come with the fare. Transavia Airlines sells the lightest tickets here, with baggage and seat selection costing extra, so compare the total rather than the headline price.

Katowice is served by Pyrzowice, an airport set in the countryside north of the city, so you will not walk into town; plan a transfer instead. Buses and shuttle services link the terminal with the Katowice centre, and a taxi or a pre-booked ride is the easiest choice if you land late at night. Leave room in your plans for the drive, especially in winter, when snow can slow the roads across Silesia. If your trip continues towards Krakow, the airport sits on that side of the region.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Copenhagen flights leave from Kastrup, the city's only airport, so there is no second departure point to compare.
• Every itinerary on this route changes planes, so check the connection time and whether both legs sit on one ticket.
• If a low-cost carrier sells one leg, add baggage and seat fees to the fare before you decide.
• Carry a passport or a national identity card that is valid for travel between Denmark and Poland.
• January is the cheapest month, but December and August sell out early, so book those dates well ahead.
• Confirm that your ticket ends at Pyrzowice, the airport that serves Katowice, and not at another Polish airport.
