Cheap flights from Gdansk to Milan

October is the cheapest month on this route, and it is the one to aim for if your dates are flexible. Prices are listed for every month of the year, from September through to August, so you can compare a late-summer trip with a winter one before you commit. Summer and the festive weeks around Christmas and New Year are the busiest, and fares climb accordingly, so book those well ahead. Midweek departures tend to cost less than Friday or Sunday flights, and a short break in spring or late autumn often lands in the calmer, cheaper stretch.

Wizz Air and Ryanair are the low-cost names you will see most on this route, with Norwegian and Jet2 also flying it. LOT Polish Airlines and Scandinavian Airlines are the full-service options, and they usually bundle more into the fare. The wider list includes German Airways, Braathens Regional Aviation, Norwegian International and Mokulele Flight Service. What differs is what you pay for on top: low-cost fares tend to include less, so check baggage and seat rules before you compare totals. On a direct flight the choice comes down to schedule and what is included, not to a change of plane.

Milan has three airports, and they are not interchangeable. Linate is the handiest for the city centre, with the shortest transfer. Malpensa is the largest of the three and sits well outside town, so allow time for the trip in. Bergamo/Orio al Serio is a separate airport serving the low-cost carriers, and it sits near Bergamo rather than Milan. Trains, coaches and shuttle buses link all three to the city, and the journey into the centre runs longer from the outer fields. Check which airport your fare uses before you book a hotel, because a low fare into Bergamo can mean a longer transfer.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which airport your fare lands at in Milan, because Linate, Malpensa and Bergamo/Orio al Serio are far apart.
• On Wizz Air, Ryanair and the other low-cost carriers, confirm what the fare includes for cabin and checked baggage.
• If a connection is booked on separate tickets, leave a generous gap, since a missed leg is not protected.
• Carry a valid passport or ID for Italy and check the entry rules for your nationality before you fly.
• Book early for summer and the Christmas period, and look at October if your dates can move.
• Compare the total cost once bags and seats are added, not just the headline fare.
