Cheap flights from Krakow to Mykonos

June comes out cheapest on this route, which is worth knowing because it sits right before the island's high season really starts. Fares are shown for May through July and again from September to December, so you can compare late spring, the summer peak and the quieter autumn window. Mykonos empties out over the winter, when connections through European hubs get thin and schedules shrink. Flying midweek usually costs less than a weekend departure, and booking well ahead matters in July. Watch Polish long weekends in May and the August holiday period, when the cheap seats on the first leg go first.

No airline flies this route nonstop, so every option is a connection, and the mix is wide. Wizz Air is the low-cost name, with a fare that covers a seat and a small cabin bag and charges for the rest. LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa, Austrian and Air Dolomiti are the full-service choices, usually routing through Warsaw, Frankfurt, Munich or Vienna, with a checked bag included depending on the fare. Aegean Airlines and Air Serbia are strong on the Greek and Balkan sides, while Eurowings, Air Baltic and Braathens Regional Aviation turn up on some connections. What matters most is where you change planes and whether both legs sit on one ticket.

Mykonos has one airport, also named Mykonos, so there is no second option to weigh up when you land. It handles the island's seasonal traffic, which means arrivals bunch up on summer weekends and the taxi rank and bus stop outside the terminal can move slowly. The usual ways into town and to the beaches are a taxi, the local bus, a pre-booked transfer or a rental car picked up at the airport. If you are heading straight to another island, check ferry times from Mykonos town before you book the flight, because plane and boat connections are not guaranteed. Keep some slack on the way home too: with a connecting flight, a delay on the first leg can cost you the second.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Krakow has a single departure airport, Balice, so confirm your ticket leaves from there and not from another city.
• Book both legs on one ticket if you want the airline to rebook you after a delay.
• On Wizz Air, decide before you pay whether you need a checked bag, because adding it later costs more.
• Check which hub you change in and how long the transfer takes, since Warsaw, Vienna and Frankfurt are not equal in size.
• Carry a passport or ID valid for Greece and check the rules for any country you transit through.
• Book early for June and July, when the cheapest seats on the first leg go first.
