Cheap flights from Krakow to Las Vegas

December is the cheapest month on this route, which surprises people who expect the run-up to Christmas to be expensive — the lull sits in the first half of the month, before the holiday rush. Late November goes the other way, with Thanksgiving travel out of the United States pushing fares up. Spring and early autumn stay steady, while July and August carry the school-holiday premium at both ends. Midweek departures, Tuesday or Wednesday, are usually calmer and cheaper than a Friday or Sunday, and a long connection hurts less when you are not racing a weekend.

Nothing flies nonstop between the two cities, so every fare here is a connection, and the airline you pick decides where you change planes and what comes with the ticket. Easyjet is the low-cost option in the list: a cabin bag, no seat choice, nothing to eat unless you buy it. The rest are full-service names — Iberia, KLM Cityhopper, Lufthansa Cityline, Cityjet, Air Serbia, Air Baltic, Condor, Air Canada and United Airlines — where a checked bag usually comes with the long-haul ticket. Read the small print on the legs flown by KLM Cityhopper, Lufthansa Cityline and Cityjet, since those allowances can be tighter than the transatlantic ones.

Las Vegas lands you at Harry Reid International Airport, just south of the Strip and unusually close to the city for an airport of its size — a short ride, not an hour-long transfer. Taxis and ride-share pick-ups have marked zones outside the terminals, hotel shuttles cover the main resort clusters, and public buses run to the Strip and downtown if you are travelling light. Rental cars sit in a separate centre reached by a shuttle. Watch two things: most hotels add a resort fee at check-in that never shows in the room rate, and if your connection enters the United States elsewhere, you clear immigration there before the final hop.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm your ticket leaves from Balice, Krakow's airport, and that the connection airport suits you.
• On Easyjet or any low-cost first leg, add a checked bag before you pay, or plan to travel cabin-only.
• If your connection is on separate tickets, allow a long layover and be ready to collect and recheck your bag.
• Confirm your passport and any US entry authorisation are valid for the whole trip, and check the rules well before departure.
• Compare December with the summer months on the price calendar, since the cheapest month is rarely the one people book.
• Look at total journey time, not just the fare, because a cheap connection can add many hours.
