Cheap flights from Malmo to Krakow

December is the cheapest month on this route, and the one to aim for if your dates are flexible. Fares are also loaded for September, October, November, January and June, so the page can price most of the year. Late autumn is quiet on the Malmo side, while Krakow fills up around the winter holidays and again in spring. Midweek departures, Tuesday and Wednesday, usually cost less than a Friday or Sunday. Book a few weeks out for the winter months, and earlier for June, when everyone else is looking at the same seats.

Every Malmo to Krakow trip involves a connection, and the carriers in the mix are full-service and regional names rather than budget airlines: Scandinavian Airlines, Braathens Regional Aviation, Cityjet and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines. Scandinavian Airlines and KLM sell the whole journey on one ticket, which matters when a connection is tight. Braathens Regional Aviation and Cityjet tend to appear on the shorter legs that feed the bigger hubs. What you get on board differs by fare family, so read the baggage line before you choose: the lightest fares here often leave a checked bag out. Book the legs separately and the connection becomes yours to manage.

Krakow is served by Balice, west of the city and a short ride from the centre rather than a long haul into the suburbs. A train runs between the terminal and the main station, and buses cover the same trip through the day; a taxi is the easy option if you land after the last bus. On the Malmo side there is only Malmo Intl., so you always leave from the same place. What to watch for is the connection: build in slack between landing at Balice and your onward flight, and keep both boarding passes within reach.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm that your departure airport is Malmo Intl., the only airport serving this route.
• Check the baggage allowance on your fare, because the lightest tickets here often exclude a checked bag.
• Make sure both flights sit on a single ticket, since every Malmo to Krakow itinerary connects somewhere.
• Check that your passport or ID card is valid for Poland and that the name matches your booking.
• Look at the price calendar before fixing dates, as December is the cheapest month and June is the other one with fares loaded.
• Leave a comfortable gap between flights if you book the legs separately, because a missed connection is then on you.
