Cheap flights from Krakow to Bergen

December is the cheapest month on this route, and the stretch from late autumn into early winter generally prices lower than the summer peak. Summer in Bergen brings long, light evenings and the heaviest demand, so book well ahead if that is when you want to go. Spring and autumn sit in the middle, with fewer crowds and more room to pick your dates. Midweek departures usually cost less than Friday and Sunday flights, when weekend travellers fill the cabins. Watch the weeks around Christmas and New Year, when demand jumps in both directions, and school holiday periods, which push fares up on northbound flights.

The airlines on this route run from low-cost to full-service. Wizz Air and Norwegian keep fares lean, with a small cabin bag included and almost everything else charged as an extra. Scandinavian Airlines, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Lufthansa, Finnair, LOT Polish Airlines, Norwegian International, Cityjet and German Airways are the full-service names here, and they tend to sell connecting itineraries alongside direct seats. On those tickets a checked bag, a seat and refreshments are usually part of the fare. Read what is included before you compare, because a low headline fare with bags added can end up costing more than a full-service ticket.

Bergen Flesland is the city's only airport, and it sits a short ride from the centre rather than out in the countryside, so the transfer is quick whichever way you travel. An airport bus and taxis both leave from the terminal, which is the usual way into town if you are heading for the harbour or your hotel. Krakow's Balice is likewise a single airport, so there is no chance of turning up at the wrong one on the way out. Pack a waterproof layer for Bergen, where rain can arrive at any time of year, and check the last transfer of the day if you land on an evening flight.
