Cheap flights from Krakow to Hurghada

February is the month with the lowest fares on this route, and it also falls in the middle of the Red Sea winter sun season, so that window fills up early. Fares are tracked from September through March and again in May, July and August, with the summer months the hottest and the school holidays the busiest. Christmas, New Year and Easter push prices up on every airline, so shifting your trip by a week or flying midweek usually helps. Late autumn and early spring give you warm weather without the peak demand.

Nobody flies Krakow to Hurghada non-stop, so every option is a connection. Low-cost carriers such as Wizz Air, Wizz Air Malta, Norwegian and Norwegian International keep the base fare low but charge separately for checked bags and seat selection, while Eurowings and Sun Express sit somewhere between charter and scheduled service. Turkish Airlines, Swiss and Brussels Airlines sell single-ticket connections through their hubs, which means one booking, protected transfers and baggage checked through to Hurghada. Air Baltic works the same way on some dates. If you book two separate tickets to save money, remember the second airline owes you nothing when the first leg runs late.

Hurghada airport sits just outside the city, a short drive from the seafront hotels and a longer one from the resorts strung along the coast. Taxis and pre-booked hotel transfers are the usual ways into town; shared shuttles cost less but wait until they fill. Agree the fare before you get in, or arrange a transfer through your hotel. If your hotel is far down the coast, treat the drive as part of the journey rather than a quick hop. Keep small notes for the driver and check your check-in time before you land.

• Check what the low-cost fare includes, because Wizz Air, Norwegian and Eurowings charge for checked bags.
• Decide between one ticket through a hub and two separate bookings, since only the first protects you if a leg is delayed.
• Leave a comfortable gap between flights if you build the connection yourself, as nothing flies this route non-stop.
• Check Egypt's entry rules and your passport validity before you pay for anything.
• Skip Christmas, New Year and Easter if you want fares closer to the February low.
