Cheap flights from Krakow to Luxor

January is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar covers September through February plus July and August. Winter is the season most people pick for Luxor: mild days, cool evenings, and the busiest weeks around the Polish school holidays, when fares climb. Spring and early summer are missing from the published months, so if you want to travel then, watch the calendar for new dates. Midweek departures are usually quieter and cheaper than weekend ones, and a Tuesday or Wednesday connection often costs less than a Friday or Sunday. Book a few months ahead for the winter sun weeks, and leave more slack if you are travelling over Christmas and New Year.

No airline flies Krakow to Luxor non-stop, so every ticket in the results is a connection, usually through a European hub or a Gulf one. Wizz Air and Easyjet are the low-cost names here; LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa, Swiss, Brussels Airlines, Air Dolomiti and Helvetic Airways are full-service carriers, while Fly Dubai and Braathens Regional Aviation turn up on some routings. What differs is what the fare covers. Low-cost tickets tend to be seat-only, with a cabin bag, a checked bag and seat choice priced separately, so the total moves once you add what you need. Full-service fares more often include a checked bag and a meal, so read the fare rules before you decide.

Luxor airport is small and sits on the east bank, a short drive from the temple area and the hotel strip along the Nile. Taxis and hotel transfers are the usual ways into town, and it is worth agreeing the fare before you set off. If you are staying on the west bank, build the Nile crossing into your journey, because the ferry and the bridge both add time. Arriving on a late connection means fewer drivers are waiting, so arrange a pickup in advance. On the way home, leave room for check-in: the airport is close to the centre, but the terminal gets busy when several departures fall together.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check that your departure airport is Balice, not another Polish airport that can appear in nearby results.
• Read the baggage rules on low-cost fares, since a seat-only ticket costs more once you add a checked bag.
• If your connection is on two separate tickets, leave a generous gap in case the first flight runs late.
• Look up Egypt's entry requirements before you pay, and check your passport is valid well past your return date.
• Compare fares across the months with published prices: January is the cheapest, summer weeks run higher.
• Decide between a quick change through a European hub and a longer layover, and check the connection time.
