Cheap flights from Krakow to Savannah

September is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar carries fares from September through December, then again in February and March. Late autumn and winter are quiet in Savannah, with mild days and far fewer visitors than in spring. Summer is hot and humid, and the run-up to Christmas lifts fares as people fly home to the States. Midweek departures from Krakow are usually quieter than Friday and Sunday, when business travel and weekend trips overlap. Book a few months ahead for autumn, and earlier still if you want to travel over the holidays.

There are no low-cost carriers on this route, so expect full-service airlines only: LOT Polish Airlines, British Airways, Lufthansa and its Lufthansa Cityline partner, Finnair, Turkish Airlines, KLM Cityhopper, Swiss, Austrian and Braathens Regional Aviation. Every itinerary connects at least once, usually through a European hub, so total travel time depends on how long you wait between flights. Full-service tickets normally include a checked bag and meals on the long leg, but the smaller regional legs may not, so read the fare rules before you pay. Booking the whole trip on one ticket keeps you protected if a connection is missed.

You land at Savannah/Hilton Head, the one airport serving the city and the South Carolina coast beyond it. It sits a short drive from downtown, so a taxi, a rideshare or a rental car gets you to your hotel quickly, and some hotels run their own shuttles. If your itinerary connects through another US city, you usually clear immigration and customs there and re-check your bag before the last leg, so leave room in your schedule. Rental desks are at the terminal, and parking in the historic district is limited, which matters if you plan to drive. Confirm your arrival terminal and pick-up point before you travel.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check that you are flying from Balice, the only airport in Krakow, so there is no doubt about where to check in.
• Compare fares that include a checked bag, as the shorter legs on this route often come with hand luggage only.
• Decide between one ticket for the whole trip and separate tickets, since a missed connection on separate tickets is yours to pay for.
• Check your passport and US travel authorisation early, as neither can be sorted at the airport.
• Look at the price calendar before fixing dates, because September is usually the cheapest month and the holidays cost more.
