Cheap flights from Warsaw to Praia

The price calendar covers September through May, and April is the month where fares come out lowest. Outside that window there are no listed prices, so if you are set on a summer trip you will need to check separately. For the months that are shown, compare a few dates rather than a single one — midweek departures and returns usually cost less than Friday or Sunday travel, and school holidays push prices up. Booking a few months ahead helps on the busiest weeks, and it is worth looking at both Warsaw airports before you decide, since the fare can differ between them.

The airline mix on this route is broad: TAP Portugal, Turkish Airlines, Lufthansa Cityline, Etihad Airways, Delta Air Lines, American Airlines and SATA Azores Airlines are the full-service names you will see, while Air Baltic, Helvetic Airways and HI Fly Transportes Aereo appear on some departures too. Direct service exists, so some results will be non-stop while others involve one or two connections, which stretches the journey. Baggage rules differ sharply between a network carrier and a leisure-style operator, so compare what is included rather than the fare alone.

Praia has a single airport, Francisco Mendes, so there is no arrival-airport choice to make — every flight into the Cape Verdean capital lands at the same place. Ground transport is usually arranged through your accommodation or with a local taxi, and it is worth settling that before you fly rather than at the terminal. Check your arrival time against how late local transport runs, and keep your first evening loose in case the connection before Praia runs behind.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check whether your departure is from F. Chopin or Modlin — Warsaw has two airports and they are not interchangeable.
• Confirm your baggage allowance, especially on the leisure and charter-style carriers where a checked bag is usually a separate add-on.
• If the itinerary has a connection, make sure it is on one ticket so a delay does not leave you stranded.
• Look up the entry rules for Cape Verde — passport validity, visa or pre-registration — before you pay.
• Compare the April fares against the months either side before you lock in a date.
• Decide whether you want the direct flight or a cheaper one-stop routing, and check the total travel time.
