Cheap flights from Warsaw to Mulhouse-Basel

November is the cheapest month on this route, and the weeks around it, late autumn and the stretch between the winter holidays and spring, tend to stay quiet. Summer and the Christmas markets in Alsace and Basel are the busiest periods, so book well ahead if you want to travel then. Midweek departures, especially Tuesday and Wednesday, are usually calmer and cheaper than Friday evenings and Sunday returns. Watch Polish holidays in early November and around Christmas, when Warsaw airports get busy, and check school break dates in both countries before you fix your dates.

Wizz Air and Wizz Air Malta are the low-cost options on this route, and they are the ones most likely to fly it directly. Their fares cover a seat and a small cabin bag, with checked luggage and seat selection added at a cost. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, KLM Cityhopper, Air France, British Airways, Lufthansa and Austrian are full-service carriers, usually connecting through their hubs, and most of their fares include a checked bag and refreshments. Norwegian and Norwegian International sit in between: low-cost in style, but often with a more generous hand baggage allowance. Check who operates each leg before you book, since the carrier on your ticket is not always the one flying.

Basel–Mulhouse EuroAirport is where you land, set outside both cities and shared by travellers heading into France and into Switzerland. Buses and shuttle services run to Mulhouse and to Basel, taxis and hire cars wait at the terminal, and rail connections from the nearby stations cover the rest. Because the airport serves more than one country, check which exit and which onward transport matches your final destination before you leave the terminal, and allow extra time if your journey continues across a border by road.

• Check the baggage allowance on low-cost fares, where a small cabin bag is often all that is included.
• If your trip combines two carriers, keep the connection on one ticket so a delay does not leave you stranded.
• Carry the right travel document for France and check whether your onward route into Switzerland needs anything extra.
• Book early for summer or the Christmas market season, when seats on this route fill up.
• Compare November with the months around it, since that is when fares on this route are lowest.
