Cheap flights from Krakow to Minneapolis St Paul

May is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar also shows fares for September through February, plus June. Summer departures from Krakow cost more, especially around the school holidays, while late autumn and winter are quieter and often cheaper. Flying midweek, on a Tuesday or Wednesday, usually beats a Friday or Sunday departure. Book a few months ahead for summer, and watch the calendar around Thanksgiving and Christmas, when seats to Minneapolis St Paul fill up fast.

No airline flies Krakow to Minneapolis St Paul non-stop, so every option here is a connecting itinerary. LOT Polish Airlines and Lufthansa route you through their hubs, British Airways and Finnair add northern connections, and Turkish Airlines offers another set of options. Scandinavian Airlines, Brussels Airlines, Air Dolomiti and Cityjet appear on some of the longer combinations, while Easyjet covers the low-cost leg of a few trips. On full-service tickets a hold bag and meals are usually part of the fare, while the low-cost option keeps them separate, so compare the total rather than the headline price.

Minneapolis-St Paul International is the only airport serving the Twin Cities, and it sits a short ride south of both downtowns. Trains and buses link the terminal with both downtowns, and taxis and rideshares cover the rest. If you connect in Europe, your bags are usually checked through, but confirm that at the first check-in. Allow time for immigration on arrival, and have your onward address ready.

• Check whether your fare includes a hold bag, especially on the low-cost leg of the trip.
• If your connection is on separate tickets, leave a generous gap, because a missed leg is not protected.
