Cheap flights from Gdansk to Sao Paulo

April is the cheapest month on this route, sitting in the quiet stretch between the European winter rush and the summer holidays. Fares are listed for most months of the year, so you can weigh a spring trip against a southern-hemisphere summer one, and December through February is high season in Brazil, when seats cost more. Midweek departures from Gdansk tend to draw lighter demand than weekend ones, and booking a few months ahead gives you a wider choice of connections. Polish school breaks and Brazilian holidays fill planes early, so if your dates are fixed, compare them sooner rather than later.

No airline flies non-stop from Gdansk to Sao Paulo, so every option here is a connecting itinerary. The mix is mostly full-service: LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa, Swiss, Air France together with its regional arm HOP!, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and KLM Cityhopper, Finnair and Scandinavian Airlines. Wizz Air is the low-cost name in the list, and its fares work differently — the ticket covers your seat, while bags and seat selection are added on top. On full-service carriers a checked bag is more often part of the fare, though it depends on the booking class. Compare the total cost of the trip, not the headline fare.

Long-haul arrivals from Europe usually land at Guarulhos International, the main gateway for Sao Paulo and the airport most likely to appear on your ticket. It sits well outside the city, so plan on a road transfer — an airport bus, a taxi or a ride app — and allow time for traffic, which is heavy at peak hours. Congonhas is the close-in airport, a short ride from the centre and handy if your connection brings you there. Viracopos serves Campinas rather than Sao Paulo itself, so check which airport your itinerary really uses before you book the final leg. If you land before dawn, look up the first transfer departures in advance.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm you are leaving from Gdansk Lech Walesa Airport, the only airport serving the city.
• Check what your Wizz Air fare includes, since low-cost tickets often price checked bags separately.
• If your itinerary is stitched from separate tickets, leave a generous buffer for the connection, because a missed leg is not protected.
• Make sure your passport is valid well beyond your return date and check Brazil's entry rules for Polish citizens.
• Decide which Sao Paulo airport you actually want: Guarulhos for long-haul arrivals, Congonhas for a short hop into town, Viracopos only if Campinas is your destination.
• Fly in April if price matters most, and expect higher fares during the Brazilian summer.
