Cheap flights from Glasgow to Munich

October is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar on this page shows how the rest of the year compares. Autumn is calm once Munich's festival season is over, while late spring and summer fill up with holiday travel and fares climb with them. Midweek departures and booking a few weeks ahead usually cost less than a Friday or Sunday flight. The Christmas market weeks and the February school break are the periods when seats go first, so plan those trips early.

Several carriers sell Glasgow to Munich, and they are not the same product. Easyjet, Jet2 and Wizz Air Malta are the low-cost names here, where the fare covers your seat and a small cabin bag and most extras are added at checkout. Lufthansa, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Aer Lingus, BA CityFlyer, Eurowings Discover, Edelweiss Air and Sun Express sit at the full-service end, where more tends to be bundled in and the fare rules are often more flexible. Direct flights exist on this route, but not every airline flies it nonstop, so check whether you are booking a nonstop or a connection through a hub, and read what each fare actually includes.

You land at Munich International, the city's main airport, which sits outside town and is linked to the centre by suburban train and bus. Allow time for the ride in if you are heading straight to a hotel or catching a train onward. Glasgow International is the only airport serving the city, so there is no doubt about where you leave from, but check your airline's check-in and bag drop closing times, since the low-cost carriers often shut them earlier than travellers expect.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm that Glasgow International is your departure point, as the city has only one airport.
• On Easyjet, Jet2 and Wizz Air Malta fares, check the cabin bag size and add any checked baggage before you pay.
• If your itinerary connects through a hub instead of flying nonstop, keep both legs on one ticket so a delay is covered.
• Carry a valid passport for Germany and check the entry rules that apply to you before departure.
• Book early for the autumn festival weeks and the Christmas markets, when demand on this route peaks.
• Scan the price calendar across the year rather than only your dates, since October is usually the cheapest month.
