Cheap flights from Kathmandu to Warsaw

October comes out cheapest on this route, and the months around it, September and November, usually sit close behind. Fares climb through the European summer and again around Christmas and New Year, when Poles fly home and Nepali families travel. In Nepal, Dashain and Tihar in autumn push demand up at the Kathmandu end, so book well before those weeks. Midweek departures tend to cost less than Friday or Sunday ones, and booking a couple of months ahead gives you more choice of connections.

The airlines flying this route include Air Arabia, Fly Dubai, Kuwait Airways, Swiss, Qatar Airways, Etihad Airways, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Austrian, Emirates and Indigo. Every one of them connects rather than flying non-stop, so your itinerary will have at least one change, usually in the Gulf or at a European hub. Low-cost carriers such as Indigo, Fly Dubai and Air Arabia sell a bare fare and charge separately for checked bags and meals, while full-service names like Qatar Airways, Emirates, Etihad Airways, Swiss, Austrian, KLM and Kuwait Airways normally include a checked allowance and meals. Check what is included before you compare the total.

Warsaw has two airports. F. Chopin, the main one, sits close to the city and is the easier arrival, with buses and a rail link into the centre. Modlin lies well to the north and mostly handles low-cost traffic, so getting in takes longer and usually means a coach or a train connection. Check which airport your ticket actually names before you arrange ground transport, and allow extra time if you land late at night, when buses run less often.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm which Warsaw airport your ticket names, because F. Chopin and Modlin are far apart.
• Check the baggage allowance on low-cost tickets, where a cabin bag is often all you get.
• Leave generous time for a self-transfer connection, since separate tickets offer no protection if the first flight is late.
• Check your visa and entry documents for Poland well before departure.
• Look at the price calendar before fixing dates, as October is cheaper than summer and the holiday weeks.
• Plan your transfer from the airport into Warsaw before you land, especially for a late arrival at Modlin.
