Cheap flights from Terceira to Warsaw

April is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar on this page shows how the rest of the year compares. Fares stay lower outside the summer rush and the Christmas and New Year period, when everyone seems to be flying at once. Spring and early autumn are the sweet spots: gentler weather, thinner crowds and more room to pick your dates. Midweek departures usually cost less than Friday or Sunday flights, and connections through mainland Portugal or another European hub are busiest at the start and end of the weekend. Book a few weeks ahead for spring travel, and earlier still if you plan to fly in high summer, when the islands fill up.

Several carriers appear on this route: Portug, TAP Portugal, SATA Azores Airlines, LOT Polish Airlines and SATA Air Acores. There is no direct flight, so expect at least one connection, and the airline you book may cover only part of the journey. What is included varies a lot between fares. Some bundle a checked bag and seat selection, others sell them separately, and shorter legs on smaller aircraft can come with tighter cabin limits. Check the allowance for every leg rather than just the longest one, and find out whether the connection is protected if the first flight runs late.

Warsaw has two airports, and which one you land at depends on your ticket, so check it before you book anything else. F. Chopin is the main gateway and sits closest to the centre, with a rail link and buses running into town through the day. Modlin lies further out and usually means a coach or a longer taxi ride. Allow extra time if you land late, since the transfer into the city slows down at night. Ignore anyone offering rides inside the terminal and use the official taxi rank or a pre-booked transfer instead. If you are heading straight on to another part of Poland, the main rail station is the simplest place to start.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm which Warsaw airport your ticket uses, because the city has two and they are far apart.
• Check the baggage allowance on every leg, since connecting fares often differ between carriers.
• If you book the legs separately, leave generous time between them, as a missed connection on separate tickets is not covered.
• Check that your passport and any entry documents are valid for Poland before you pay.
• Decide whether you want a spring trip, when fares are lowest, or a summer one, and book earlier for the busier months.
• Remember that Terceira has a single airport, Lajes, so every departure leaves from there.
