Cheap flights from Krakow to Tenerife

January is the cheapest month on this route, which is why the weeks after the holidays are worth watching. Fares move through the year: summer and the run-up to Christmas and New Year are the busiest, while spring and late autumn sit somewhere in between. If your dates are flexible, compare a Tuesday or Wednesday departure with a weekend one — midweek seats on this route tend to cost less, and the price calendar shows how wide the gap runs. Winter is peak season for Canary Islands travel out of Poland, so book a few months ahead if you want January; book late only if you are happy to take whatever is left.

The route is mostly low-cost. Ryanair, Wizz Air and Wizz Air Malta fly it alongside Easyjet, Jet2 and Norwegian, and these carriers sell the seat on its own — bags, seat choice and food are add-ons, so the headline fare is rarely the final one. LOT Polish Airlines is the full-service name on the list, and its fares usually bundle more into the ticket. German Airways, Cityjet and HOP! appear as operating carriers on some connections rather than the direct hop. Compare the fare bundles, not just the base price, before you choose.

Tenerife has two airports, in Spain's Canary Islands, and they sit on opposite sides of the island. Tenerife Norte serves Santa Cruz and the northern towns, while Tenerife Sur serves the southern resorts. Both have buses into the nearest towns, plus taxis, rental desks and shared transfers; a taxi or a pre-booked transfer is the easy option if you land late at night. Check the airport code on your booking before you arrange anything — crossing between the two takes a while, and landing on the wrong side can eat your first evening.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check that you are flying from Balice, the airport that serves Krakow, and leave time to reach it from the city.
• On low-cost tickets, confirm the cabin bag size and whether a checked bag is included before you pay.
• Tenerife has two airports, so check whether you land at Tenerife Norte or Tenerife Sur before booking a transfer or hire car.
• If your trip is built from separate tickets, leave a generous gap so a delay on one does not cost you the next flight.
• Make sure your passport or ID meets the entry rules for Spain and stays valid for the whole trip.
• Fares move with the season, so compare the price calendar around your dates before you commit.
