Cheap flights from Warsaw to Koror

January is the cheapest month for this route in the fare data, and it sits in the middle of the stretch the price calendar tracks, which runs from September through March and then picks up again in May and August. Fares around Christmas and New Year tend to climb, so aim for the second half of January rather than the holiday weeks. Midweek departures from Warsaw usually price lower than weekend ones, and a long connecting itinerary gives you more date combinations to compare than a short flight does. Book earlier than you would for a European trip — seats on the long legs fill up first, and booking late usually means paying more for the same connection.

The carriers listed for this route are KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa, Turkish Airlines, Austrian, Emirates and Air Baltic. None of them is a budget airline and none flies Warsaw to Koror non-stop, so every fare you see is a connecting itinerary built around one or more hubs. LOT Polish Airlines is based in Warsaw, which makes it an obvious place to start when you compare the first leg. The others add a longer routing but can price differently on the long sectors, so compare them side by side. What is included depends on the fare family, not the airline name, so check baggage and change rules before you compare totals.

Arrivals on this route land at Airai, the airport that serves Koror and the rest of Palau. It sits close to town by road, so the transfer is short rather than the long run you would face at a major hub — taxis and hotel shuttles are the usual ways in, and many visitors arrange a pickup with their accommodation before they fly. Because nothing on this route is non-stop, your landing time is set by the connection, and a late arrival leaves fewer drivers working. Have your first night's address written down, since smaller guesthouses may not be recognised by name. Confirm any pickup in advance, and keep a little cash handy.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which Warsaw airport you fly from, F. Chopin or Modlin, since the two are not interchangeable.
• Look at the baggage allowance on every leg, as a connecting itinerary can mix carriers with different rules.
• Find out whether the journey is one ticket or separate bookings, because separate tickets mean re-checking bags and carrying the missed-connection risk yourself.
• Read Palau's entry requirements, including passport validity and onward travel rules, before you pay.
• Compare your dates with the price calendar, where January is cheapest and the turn-of-year weeks are not.
• Count the total travel time with layovers, not just the departure and arrival clocks.
