Cheap flights from Krakow to Munich

April is the cheapest month on this route, so if your dates can move, start there. The months around it shift with school breaks and public holidays in Poland and Germany, and the winter holiday weeks are usually the busiest of the year. Midweek departures tend to be calmer and cheaper than Friday evenings and Sunday returns, when weekend traffic peaks. For spring and autumn trips, booking a few weeks ahead is usually enough; for summer and the winter holidays, book as early as you can. The price calendar on this page shows what each month has been doing.

The route is served by a mix of low-cost and network carriers. Wizz Air and Wizz Air Malta, Easyjet, Norwegian and Norwegian International keep fares low and charge separately for things like checked bags and seat choice. LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Air Dolomiti and Scandinavian Airlines sell fare families instead, so what is included depends on the fare you pick. Direct service exists between Krakow and Munich, but not every airline flies it nonstop, and some sell connections through their home hubs that can be cheaper or better timed. Compare the total, not the headline fare.

You land at Munich International, the airport that serves the city, so there is no second Munich airport to worry about. It sits well outside the centre, and commuter trains and buses run from the terminal into town, with taxis and pre-booked transfers as the other option. Allow time for the transfer if you have an early meeting or a late arrival. On the Krakow side, departures are from Balice, the city's only airport, which keeps the outbound leg simple. If you are connecting, check whether your bag is checked through to Munich or has to be collected and re-checked.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Departure is from Balice, Krakow's only airport, so there is no second-airport decision on this route.
• On Wizz Air, Easyjet and the other low-cost carriers, add the checked bag and seat selection to the fare before you compare it with a network airline.
• If your itinerary connects, check whether it is one ticket or two, because separate tickets put a missed connection on you.
• Check the entry rules for Germany for your passport or ID, and make sure the name on the booking matches your document.
• April is the cheapest month here, so price a spring date against the one you actually want.
• Compare the direct departure times with the connecting options before you fix your dates.
