Cheap flights from Poznan to Seoul

March comes out cheapest on this route, and it sits at the edge of the Korean spring, before the cherry blossom crowds push fares up. Late autumn and the first half of winter also price well, while summer and the Lunar New Year rush are the expensive stretches, when Seoul fills with domestic travel and hotel rates follow. Fly midweek if you can: Tuesday and Wednesday departures from Poznan tend to undercut the weekend. Book a couple of months ahead for spring and autumn, and watch the price calendar rather than guessing.

No airline flies Poznan to Seoul nonstop, so every ticket here is a connecting one. The European side of the list is full-service: LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa and its Lufthansa Cityline regional arm, Air France, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines with KLM Cityhopper, and Helvetic Airways. Qatar Airways, Fly Dubai and Singapore Airlines route you through their Gulf or Asian hubs instead. Baggage is usually included on these carriers, but the connection airport and layover length vary a lot, so check what each fare actually covers.

Seoul has two airports and they are not interchangeable. Incheon International is the long-haul gateway, far out on the coast, and it feeds the city by express and all-stop rail lines plus limousine buses that stop at the big hotel districts. Gimpo International sits much closer to the centre and handles more regional traffic, with its own subway and rail links. Check which one your ticket names before you book ground transport, and allow extra time at Incheon if you land in the evening rush.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Poznan flies from Lawica, so confirm the airport and leave time for the bus or train into town.
• Every itinerary to Seoul involves at least one connection, so check whether the legs sit on one ticket or two.
• If the legs are separate tickets, a missed connection is your problem, not the airline's.
• Baggage rules differ between the European carriers and the Gulf ones, so read what the fare includes before you pay.
• Check South Korea's entry rules and passport validity well before departure.
• March is the cheapest month here, but fares move, so set an alert and compare the whole journey, not just the first leg.
