Cheap flights from Gdansk to Copenhagen

October comes out as the cheapest month on this route, and the autumn weeks either side of it usually stay calm once the summer rush is over. Summer and the run-up to Christmas and New Year are the busiest stretches, when fares climb and the good departure times go first; late winter and early spring are quiet again. Midweek departures, especially Tuesday and Wednesday, tend to be kinder on the wallet than Friday evenings and Sunday nights, when weekend traffic peaks. Book a few weeks ahead for summer and the holidays, and watch the price calendar for the months where fares dip.

Wizz Air and Ryanair are the low-cost names on this route, where the fare is built around the seat and extras are added at booking. Scandinavian Airlines, LOT Polish Airlines and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines are the full-service options, usually with a checked bag included in the ticket. Norwegian, Norwegian International, Cityjet, Hahn Air Technologies and Mokulele Flight Service also appear in results, often on connecting itineraries rather than nonstop. If you need a flexible ticket or hold luggage, compare the total cost rather than the headline fare.

Flights land at Kastrup, Copenhagen Airport, a short ride from the centre on the island of Amager. The metro and the train both run from the terminal into town, and the metro is the quicker of the two, while the train stops at the main station. Buses and taxis wait outside arrivals. If you are connecting onward, check whether your next flight leaves from the same terminal, since Kastrup handles both domestic and international traffic and the walk between gates can take a while. Allow extra time on winter evenings, when delays ripple through the later departures.
