Cheap flights from Poznan to Delhi

April is the cheapest month on this route, sitting between the winter rush and the summer peak, so it is the month to watch first on the price calendar. Fares also appear for September through March, with autumn and early spring usually calmer than the Christmas and New Year stretch. Flying out midweek, Tuesday to Thursday, tends to cost less than a weekend departure. In Delhi, keep the Indian holiday calendar in mind, since Diwali and the wedding season fill seats on inbound flights, and April is already hot before the monsoon arrives. Book a few weeks ahead for winter travel, and earlier if you are tied to school holidays.

Nothing flies Poznan to Delhi non-stop, so your ticket will combine two carriers or two legs on one booking. LOT Polish Airlines and Lufthansa are the familiar full-service names out of Lawica, while Lufthansa Cityline, Air Dolomiti, Helvetic Airways and Cityjet often fly the shorter feeder legs into a hub. Qatar Airways and Fly Dubai cover the Gulf connections, and Swiss and Air Baltic widen the choice of European transfer points. What is included differs sharply between fare types, so add baggage and seat charges to the fare before you compare.

You land at Indira Gandhi International, Delhi's main airport and the one this route uses. It sits well outside the city centre, and the drive in can take a long while in traffic, so avoid planning anything tight on arrival day. The Airport Express metro is the quickest way to the New Delhi station area when it is running; prepaid taxi counters and app cabs are the usual alternatives, and the prepaid desk is the safer bet than a driver who approaches you inside the terminal. Keep small change handy for the taxi, and confirm the terminal on your ticket before you fly, since the airport handles both domestic and international traffic.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Poznan has a single airport, Lawica, so check the code on your ticket rather than a second departure point.
• Every itinerary to Delhi involves a change of plane, so weigh the total connection time, not just the layover city.
• If your legs are booked on separate tickets, a missed connection is on you, so leave generous slack.
• On the lowest fares, especially the Gulf carriers, a checked bag may be an add-on, so price it before you commit.
• Sort your Indian visa or e-visa and passport validity before you book anything non-refundable.
• April is the cheapest month, but it is also hot in Delhi, so decide whether the saving is worth it.
