Cheap flights from Inverness to Warsaw

November is the cheapest month on this route, and the fares shown for September, October, December, February and March sit a little higher. Late autumn and the weeks after the New Year are the quietest stretches, while the run-up to Christmas and the school breaks around it are the busiest, so book well ahead if you are travelling then. Midweek departures, Tuesday and Wednesday in particular, tend to be calmer and cheaper than Friday or Sunday. For a city break in Warsaw, spring and early autumn give the most comfortable weather for walking, while deep winter is cold and dark but quieter and cheaper.

No carrier flies this route non-stop, so every option involves at least one change of plane. Easyjet is the low-cost name here: the fare covers your seat and a small cabin bag, and you pay extra for checked luggage, a bigger cabin bag and choosing where you sit. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, British Airways and Aer Lingus are full-service, with a more generous baggage allowance and food and drink included in the ticket. Connections through a hub usually come on one ticket, which means the airline looks after you if a delay makes you miss the onward flight; build the trip from separate tickets and that protection disappears.

Warsaw has two airports, and they are not interchangeable. F. Chopin sits close to the city, with a train and bus link into the centre and a short taxi ride if you prefer. Modlin is well outside Warsaw, so allow real time for the transfer: buses run to the city centre and to the Chopin airport area, and the journey is a good deal longer than from Chopin. Check which airport your ticket names before you book, because a cheap fare into Modlin can cost you the difference in transfer time. Late arrivals are worth planning for, since if you land after the last bus a taxi is your only option.
