Cheap flights from Warsaw to Copenhagen

October is usually the cheapest month to fly this route, and the months around it often stay reasonable once the summer rush is over. Late spring and summer are the busiest and priciest, when both cities fill with visitors; winter is quiet apart from the Christmas period, when seats home to Poland get scarce. Midweek departures, especially Tuesday and Wednesday, tend to cost less than Friday evenings and Sunday returns. Book a few weeks ahead for summer and around the holidays, and keep an eye on the calendar for the rest of the year.

Low-cost carriers such as Ryanair and Wizz Air keep fares on this route keen, and they charge extra for checked bags, seat selection and anything beyond a small cabin bag. Full-service airlines including LOT Polish Airlines, Scandinavian Airlines and Finnair bundle a cabin bag and often a checked bag into the fare, with more flexibility if plans change. Norwegian and Norwegian International sit between the two, while Cityjet, Nordic Regional Airlines and Mokulele Flight Service appear on selected services. Direct flights are available; some connections add a stop and a longer travel day.

Copenhagen Kastrup is the airport serving the city, and it sits a short ride from the centre rather than out in the countryside. The metro and the train both run from the terminal into town, taxis wait outside arrivals, and the journey is quick enough that you can plan a full day around it. Allow extra time on the way back: Kastrup is a large airport with long walks to some gates, and passport or ID checks apply depending on where you are travelling from.

• Check whether you are flying from F. Chopin or Modlin, since Warsaw has two airports and they are far apart.
• On low-cost tickets, add a checked bag to the fare before you compare totals.
• If a connection is on separate tickets, leave a generous gap in case the first flight is delayed.
• Carry a valid passport or ID card for Denmark and check the entry rules before you fly.
• Book early for summer and the Christmas period, and check the price calendar for October.
