Cheap flights from London to Suceava

October is the cheapest month on this route, and fares are listed for every month of the year, so you can put a summer trip and a winter one side by side on the same page. Spring and autumn usually fall between the two busy peaks, while the summer school break and the winter holidays push seats up at both ends of the route. Midweek departures out of London tend to price lower than Friday and Sunday flights, and booking a few weeks ahead usually beats leaving it to the last minute. If your dates are open, start with October and work outwards from there.

Low-cost carriers such as Wizz Air Malta and Easyjet sell this route as point-to-point tickets, where a cabin bag is normally included and a checked bag costs extra. Full-service names — KLM Cityhopper and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Turkish Airlines, El Al Israel Airlines, Egyptair and Etihad Airways — tend to sell the trip as a connection through their own hub, with a checked bag and a meal inside the fare. You will also see German Airways and A.P.G. Distribution System on some itineraries, often as the operating carrier behind a code-share. Compare the total rather than the headline fare, because a cheap seat plus a paid bag can end up costing more than a full-service ticket.

Salcea is the airport that serves Suceava, and it lies outside the city rather than in it, so allow time for the transfer instead of treating it as a walk from the terminal. Taxis and shuttle buses are the usual ways into town, and a hire car makes sense if you plan to move around the region. Check which London airport you are leaving from before you book the onward transfer, since Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Stansted and London City sit on different sides of the city. If you arrive on a connection, make sure your bags are tagged through to Suceava and that the layover is long enough to clear the transfer without rushing.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm which London airport your fare uses, because Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Stansted and London City are not interchangeable.
• On low-cost tickets from Wizz Air Malta or Easyjet, add the cost of a checked bag before you compare prices.
• If a full-service carrier sells the trip as a connection, check the layover length and whether your bags are through-tagged.
• On a self-transfer itinerary, leave generous time between the two legs, because a missed connection is yours to sort out.
• Check the entry rules for Romania and make sure your travel document is valid for the whole trip.
• Fly in October if your dates are open, and compare the price calendar month by month before you commit.
