Cheap flights from Lublin to Madrid

December is the cheapest month on this route, and the fare calendar carries prices from September through December, then again for July and August. Late autumn and early winter are calmer and cheaper than the summer peak, when school holidays push seats up. Midweek departures, Tuesday and Wednesday in particular, usually undercut Friday and Sunday. Christmas and New Year fill fast in both Poland and Spain, and the Spanish Three Kings holiday in early January is busy too, so book well ahead if you need those dates. If your plans are flexible, November and early December are the easiest months to find a good fare.

Two carriers sell tickets between Lublin and Madrid: LOT Polish Airlines and Wizz Air UK. LOT is a full-service network airline, so a connection is normally issued on one ticket, bags are checked through to Barajas, and a delay on the first leg is the airline's problem to solve. Wizz Air UK is a low-cost carrier: the fare covers a seat and a small personal item, while cabin and checked bags, seat choice and food cost extra, and its connections are often sold as separate tickets. That difference matters more than the headline fare, so add the bag you actually need before you compare. Neither airline flies the route nonstop, so every option involves at least one change of plane.

You land at Barajas, Madrid's commercial airport, which sits some way outside the city centre. Metro and suburban rail both run from the terminals into town, and there are express buses and taxi ranks at the terminals, so you have options at most hours. Allow time for moving between terminals if you arrive at one and leave from another, and remember that a connection on separate tickets means collecting your bag and clearing the arrivals hall before you check in again. Madrid is the capital of Spain, so the airport stays busy all year and passport queues stretch in summer.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Lublin has one airport, so confirm your departure is from Lublin and not another Polish city you would reach by train.
• On Wizz Air UK the fare is unbundled, so add the cabin or checked bag you need before comparing it with LOT.
• If the legs are separate tickets, you collect your bag and check in again, and a missed connection is yours to carry.
• Check Spain's entry rules for your nationality and make sure your passport has enough validity left.
• December is the cheapest month, but the Christmas weeks sell out early, so book ahead for those dates.
• Weigh total journey time as well as fare, since a long layover can turn a cheap ticket into a full day of travel.
