Cheap flights from Gdansk to London

October is the cheapest month on this route, and the autumn weeks around it usually hold their value too. Summer is the busy stretch: school holidays push fares up at both ends, and the run-up to Christmas fills the pre-holiday departures out of Gdansk. Midweek flights tend to cost less than Friday evenings and Sunday returns, when weekenders travel both ways. Book a few weeks ahead for summer and the Christmas period; outside those windows, fares often stay flat until close to departure. If your dates are flexible, check the price calendar before you commit to a day.

The route mixes low-cost and full-service names. Ryanair, Ryanair UK, Wizz Air and Jet2 are the budget side of the list: the fare buys the seat first and everything else is added later, so read the baggage rules before you choose. Norwegian, Malta Airlines, German Airways and Mokulele Flight Service turn up in some results as well. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and KLM Cityhopper sell the trip on one ticket with a connection through Amsterdam, which matters when you want your bags checked through to London. Direct flights exist on this route, but plenty of the cheaper results connect, so weigh the total journey time and not just the departure board.

London gives you five arrival points: London City, Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton and Stansted. London City is the closest to the centre, Heathrow sits west of town, Gatwick is south, and Luton and Stansted are well out to the north. All of them have trains, coaches and Tube or rail links into the middle of the city, but journey times differ a lot, so pick your airport before you pick your fare. Late arrivals are the thing to watch: the last trains from the outer airports leave well before the airports themselves close, and night coaches are slower but run later. Land at Heathrow or London City and you reach the centre quickly; from Luton or Stansted, allow more of your day for the transfer.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which London airport the fare lands at, because Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton, Stansted and London City sit in different corners of the city.
• On a low-cost ticket, add a checked bag and seat selection before you compare totals.
• If you build the trip from separate tickets, leave a long gap between flights, because a missed connection is yours to fix.
• Carry a valid passport and check the entry rules for the United Kingdom before you fly.
• Book October early if you want the cheapest month, and steer clear of the summer and Christmas peaks.
• Gdansk has a single airport, Gdansk Lech Walesa Airport, so confirm your departure terminal before you set off.
