Cheap flights Gdansk – Malaga

March usually brings the lowest fares on this route, sitting between the winter holidays and the spring rush. Late autumn and early winter are the quiet stretch, while July and August bring the highest demand as holidaymakers head for the Spanish coast. Midweek departures tend to cost less than Friday or Sunday flights, and Polish school breaks push prices up. Book a few weeks ahead for spring and autumn travel, and much earlier if you want high summer.

Every ticket from Gdansk to Malaga is a connection, because no airline flies the route non-stop. Wizz Air and Ryanair are the low-cost carriers you will see most often, and their fares are built up piece by piece, so baggage and seat choice add to the total. Norwegian, Norwegian International, Jet2, German Airways and Braathens Regional Aviation also appear on this route. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and KLM Cityhopper sell full-service connections through their hub, as does Scandinavian Airlines, where fares usually bundle more. Compare the whole journey, not just the headline fare.

Malaga airport sits close to the city, a short ride from the centre and even closer to the beaches of the Costa del Sol, so the transfer is quick by the standards of holiday airports. Trains, buses, taxis and rental cars all link the terminal with the city centre and the coastal resorts. If you arrive on a late connection, check the last transfer times before you book, because services thin out after the evening. Allow extra time on the way back in high summer, when the terminal and the roads to the coast are at their busiest.
