Cheap flights from Rhodes to Warsaw

June is the cheapest month on this route, and the seasons around it behave differently. Spring and autumn sit in the middle, July and August are peak Greek island season, and the weeks around Christmas and New Year fill up early. Fares move with demand rather than distance, so the month matters more than the day of the week, though midweek departures usually cost less than Friday and Sunday flights. Book a few weeks ahead for summer travel and earlier than that for the Christmas period, when Greeks flying home and Poles heading south compete for the same seats. Easter is another busy window in both countries, so decide early if your dates fall around it.

Several carriers serve this route, and they split into two groups. Wizz Air, Ryanair and Easyjet are the low-cost names, where the fare covers a seat and a small cabin bag, and everything else, from checked luggage to seat choice, costs extra. Aegean Airlines, Olympic Air, Sky Express, Austrian, Edelweiss Air, Hahn Air and Israir sit closer to the full-service and charter end, with fares that more often include a checked bag and refreshments. Not every airline on the list flies the route nonstop, so check whether your itinerary is direct or connects through a hub before you compare. Compare the total with the bag you actually need, not the headline fare alone.

Warsaw is served by two airports, and which one you land at shapes your first hour in the city. F. Chopin sits close to the centre, with city buses and a rail link into town and taxis waiting outside arrivals. Modlin lies well outside the city to the north, and the run in is longer, usually on a shuttle bus or coach timed to meet arriving flights. Check your booking carefully, because low-cost carriers often use Modlin while full-service airlines use Chopin, and the two are far enough apart that turning up at the wrong one is not a small mistake. Once you are through, buy a ticket for the bus or train before you board where that is required.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm which Warsaw airport your flight uses, since F. Chopin and Modlin are far apart and not interchangeable.
• Check that your departure is from Diagoras Airport and allow extra time to reach it in high season.
• Read the baggage allowance on low-cost fares, where a small cabin bag is often all that is included.
• If you are connecting on two separate tickets, leave a generous buffer in case the first flight is delayed.
• Carry a valid passport or identity card for travel between Greece and Poland and check its expiry date.
• Book early for June, the cheapest month, and for the Christmas and Easter periods when seats go quickly.
