Cheap flights from Krakow to Rabat

January is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar covers September through December, then January to March, plus May. Winter is the quiet season at both ends, which is why fares drop then; late spring and the summer months cost more. Fly midweek if you can, since Tuesday and Wednesday departures are usually gentler on the wallet than Friday or Sunday. Expect fares to climb around Christmas and New Year, when people travel in both directions, and again during the Polish summer school holidays.

Ryanair, Wizz Air and Easyjet are the low-cost names on this route, and their fares are hand baggage only unless you pay for more. The full-service side is Air France, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, HOP!, Swiss, Air Dolomiti, Lufthansa and Austrian, whose tickets normally include a cabin bag and often a checked one, with food and drink on board. Those carriers fly you through their hubs, so the journey takes longer but the timetable is fuller. Direct flights do exist here, so filter for them if you would rather not change planes, and check whether a connection sits on one ticket or on two.

Rabat is served by Rabat–Salé airport, named after Salé, the city across the river from the capital. The airport sits outside the built-up area, so the last stretch into the centre is a taxi or bus ride rather than a walk. Taxis are quicker; agree the fare before you set off, or check that the meter is running. Buses take longer and stop more often, which suits you if you are not in a rush. Carry some local cash for the ride and allow time at passport control after landing.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check that you are flying out of Krakow Balice, the city's only airport, and not from another Polish city.
• On Ryanair, Wizz Air and Easyjet fares, add the cost of checked bags and seat selection before you compare prices.
• If your trip is built from separate tickets, leave a generous gap between flights so a delay does not cost you the connection.
• Make sure your passport is valid well beyond your return date and check the current entry rules for Morocco.
• Book early for January, the cheapest month, and compare it with the shoulder months before you commit.
• Confirm whether your itinerary is direct or connects through a hub, and look at the total travel time, not just the departure hour.
