Cheap Flights from Hangzhou to Warsaw

May comes out cheapest on this route, and the months either side of it, April and June, usually sit close behind. Late spring and early autumn are mild and comfortable in Warsaw, while midsummer brings heat and the European holiday rush. From the Chinese side, avoid flying out around Chinese New Year and the autumn national holiday, when seats fill early and fares climb. Midweek departures tend to be quieter than weekend ones, and booking several weeks ahead matters more here than on short-haul routes.

Several carriers sell this route, all of them full-service rather than low-cost: Air China, China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines, Hainan Airlines, Sichuan Airlines, Shandong Airlines and Shenzhen Airlines on the Chinese side, plus Etihad Airways, Singapore Airlines and Hong Kong Airlines, which connect through their own hubs. Which one you pick mostly decides where you change planes: Abu Dhabi, Singapore or Hong Kong instead of a mainland Chinese hub. What is included differs by fare family rather than by airline alone, so read the baggage allowance and the change rules on the exact fare you are shown before you pay.

Warsaw has two airports, and they are not interchangeable. F. Chopin is the main one and sits within easy reach of the centre, with buses, trains and taxis doing the run into town. Modlin is farther out and is usually reached by coach or by car, so the transfer takes longer and needs planning. Check which airport your flight lands at before you arrange the onward leg, and remember that a late arrival can leave you with fewer options into the city. If your itinerary changes planes in Europe, confirm whether the last leg lands at Chopin or Modlin, because the two are a long way apart.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which Warsaw airport your flight lands at, because Chopin and Modlin are not interchangeable for onward transfers.
• Confirm the baggage allowance on the exact fare, since a connecting itinerary can mix carriers with different rules.
• Make sure a self-transfer between two separate tickets leaves enough time in case the first flight is delayed.
• Check entry rules and visa requirements for Poland well before departure.
• Look at the price calendar before fixing dates, as May is the cheapest month and the spread across the year is wide.
• Check where the layover happens, because changing planes in the Gulf, Hong Kong or a mainland hub changes the journey.
