Cheap flights from Warsaw to Dayong

December comes out cheapest on this route, and it is the month to aim for if your dates are flexible. Prices also show up for September, October and November, then again in April, May and July, so the shoulder seasons are worth comparing. Weekday departures from Warsaw are usually quieter than Friday and Sunday, and Polish holiday periods around Christmas and the New Year push fares up even in a cheap month. Book a few months ahead where you can, and watch out for Chinese public holidays, when domestic connections inside the country fill up quickly.

There is no nonstop service between Warsaw and Dayong, so every itinerary involves at least one change of plane. The carriers that appear on this route range from full-service names such as LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa, Air France, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Austrian, Aegean Airlines and Air China to low-cost and regional operators like Fly Dubai, Braathens Regional Aviation and Nordic Regional Airlines. Full-service tickets usually include a checked bag and meals, while low-cost and regional fares charge for bags and food on top. Where a connection is booked on a separate ticket, your bags normally have to be collected and checked in again.

Dayong is served by a single airport, named simply Dayong, so there is no choice of arrival point to weigh up. It sits outside the city itself, and the usual ways in are a taxi or a shuttle bus rather than any form of rail link. Allow time for the drive if you land late, and have your accommodation address written in Chinese characters to show a driver. On the way out, check whether your onward connection leaves from the same terminal you arrived at, and keep your passport within reach, as it is checked again at domestic departures in China.

• If your connection is on a separate ticket, allow enough time to collect your bags and check in again.
• Sort out your visa for China before you book, and check the passport validity the entry rules ask for.
