Cheap flights from Krakow to Aarhus

Aarhus fares dip furthest in February, the quietest stretch for a Danish city break. Autumn and late winter — September through November, then January and March — usually sit close behind, while August carries the tail of the summer season. Midweek departures tend to undercut Friday and Sunday travel, and anything near Christmas, Easter or the Danish school breaks fills up early. Book a few weeks ahead for winter trips and give yourself longer for summer, when the cheap seats on the connecting legs go first.

With no non-stop service, your ticket combines two legs. LOT Polish Airlines and Scandinavian Airlines appear most often on this pairing, with KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Austrian, Brussels Airlines, Luxair, Cityjet, Air Baltic, Braathens Regional Aviation and Turkish Airlines filling in the other connections. Most of these are network carriers rather than low-cost, so the fare family matters more than the name on the tail: a cabin bag is usually part of the ticket, a checked bag often is not on the lightest fares. If you build the trip from two separate tickets, the risk of a missed connection is yours.

You land at Aarhus airport, the only airport serving the city, and it lies a fair way from the centre — this is not a walk-out-of-the-terminal arrival. The usual ways in are the airport coach timed to arriving flights, a taxi, or a hire car if you want to see more of Jutland. Build the transfer into your plans if you have a train to catch or a late landing, and double-check which airport your second flight uses, since a cheap itinerary can drop you somewhere you did not expect.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm that your first leg leaves from Balice, the only airport in Krakow, and allow for city traffic on the way there.
• Read the baggage allowance on each leg separately, because on a connecting ticket the stricter rule usually wins.
• Decide before booking what you will do if two separate tickets mean a missed connection is your problem.
• Check that your passport or identity card is valid for Denmark and for any country you change planes in.
• Start your search in February if your dates are flexible, then test the neighbouring months against it.
• Arrange the transfer from Aarhus airport in advance when you land late, as the coach and taxi options thin out.
