Cheap flights from Poznan to Tokyo

October is the cheapest month on this route, and it is the one to aim for if your dates can move. The price calendar covers every month of the year, so you can weigh the quiet weeks of late autumn against the busy stretches around Christmas and the Japanese holiday season. Flights out of Poznan on a Tuesday or Wednesday usually cost less than weekend departures, and midweek travel often means shorter queues at the change airport too. For an autumn trip, book a few months ahead; for summer, start watching earlier, because seats from Poland to Japan sell out well before departure.

The airlines listed for this route are full-service carriers, not no-frills, and none of them fly Poznan to Tokyo non-stop. On the European side you will see LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa and Lufthansa Cityline, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and KLM Cityhopper, Air France and Braathens Regional Aviation. The long stretch is usually flown by Qatar Airways, Fly Dubai or All Nippon Airways, with All Nippon Airways on many final legs into Japan. Because a checked bag and meals normally come with the ticket, the difference between fares is mostly about connection length and how long you wait at the change airport. Fare families differ, so check the baggage rules on each leg.

Tokyo has two airports and your itinerary will name one of them. Haneda, Tokyo Intl, sits close to the city, and the monorail or a short train ride gets you to the centre quickly. Narita Intl is well outside the city, so plan on a train or an airport bus that takes a good hour or more, and check the last departure if you land late. Look at your booking carefully: a few itineraries arrive at one airport and leave from the other, and moving between Haneda and Narita eats a big part of a day. If you can choose, Haneda is the quicker arrival; Narita is the one to plan around.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which Tokyo airport your itinerary uses, Haneda or Narita, and whether you arrive and leave from the same one.
• Confirm the baggage allowance on each leg, since the short European hop may be operated by a regional partner with tighter rules.
• Make sure both legs sit on one ticket, or leave a long gap if you book the connection separately.
• Look up the entry rules and any visa requirements for Japan well before departure.
• If you are aiming for the October fares, book early enough to keep a sensible connection.
