Cheap flights from Warsaw to Burgas

October is usually the cheapest month to fly this route, and the price calendar also shows fares for September, November, December, January, February, March, May, June and July. Summer is the busy season on the Bulgarian coast, so June and July fill up early and cost more, while September and early October still feel warm but draw fewer travellers. Outside the season expect a quieter schedule and fewer departures. Midweek flights tend to be calmer than weekend ones, and school holidays in both countries push demand up. Book well ahead for summer travel, and leave it later if you are flying in the low season.

Low-cost carriers such as Ryanair and Wizz Air are the usual pick here, with fares that cover a seat and a small cabin bag, and everything else added on. LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa, Austrian and Swiss are full-service, so a checked bag, a meal and seat selection are typically part of the ticket, and connections through a hub are common. Norwegian, Air Baltic, SkyUp MT and Enter Air also appear on this route, and charter-style operators such as Enter Air often bundle baggage into the fare. The practical difference is what you pay for separately, so add bags and seats to a low-cost fare before comparing it with a full-service ticket.

Burgas airport sits close to the city, a short drive from the centre, and it is the main gateway for the southern Bulgarian coast. Buses run into town and along the coast towards the resort areas, though timetables thin out outside the summer season. Taxis and pre-booked transfers are the other common options, so agree the fare or use a metered cab rather than accepting an offer in the arrivals hall. In peak summer, allow extra time for baggage and for the queue at the taxi rank, and check whether your transfer still runs if you land late at night.
