Cheap flights from Warsaw to Innsbruck

December is the cheapest month on this route, and November, January and February stay close behind, which matters if you are heading for snow in the Tyrol. Spring and autumn are calmer for city travel, while July and August fill with summer holiday traffic and fares rise with them. Book a few weeks ahead for ordinary winter weekends and much earlier around Christmas, New Year and the winter school holidays, when demand from Warsaw peaks. Tuesday and Wednesday departures usually cost less than Friday and Sunday, and early connections tend to beat late-afternoon ones.

Nothing flies Warsaw to Innsbruck non-stop, so every option here is a connection. Wizz Air is the low-cost name in the mix; KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, British Airways, Eurowings, Lufthansa, Swiss, Austrian, Air Dolomiti, LOT Polish Airlines and Air Baltic sell the trip as a through-ticketed itinerary with a change in between. The difference shows up in what is bundled: low-cost fares are built from separate pieces, so a checked bag and a seat choice come on top, while a full-service ticket on one booking keeps both legs on the same record. Check the connection time and whether you are buying one ticket or two.

Innsbruck has one airport, and it sits a short ride from the centre, so buses and taxis get you into town quickly. Because your flight connects, your checked bag is normally tagged through to Innsbruck; confirm that at check-in in Warsaw, especially if the legs are on separate tickets. Winter weather can slow things down at both ends, so leave room in your plans if you are heading straight for the mountains. If you land late, look up the last bus times before you book, since this is a small airport that quietens down in the evening.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check whether you fly from F. Chopin or Modlin — Warsaw's two airports are far apart and not interchangeable.
• Look hard at the connection time; a tight change in a busy hub is how cheap itineraries go wrong.
• On low-cost fares, add the cabin bag and the checked bag before you call a ticket cheap.
• If the legs are on separate tickets, a delay on the first one is your problem, not the airline's.
• Carry a passport or national ID valid for Austria, and check the rules if you stop outside the Schengen area.
• Book early for December and the winter holidays, when everyone in Warsaw heads for the Alps.
