Cheap flights Warsaw to Siem Reap

June is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar shows fares from September through April and again in June. Cambodia's dry season runs from November to April, which is when most travellers go, and Christmas and New Year push fares up on the Warsaw side. The wet months bring afternoon rain, lower prices and a greener Angkor. Midweek departures are usually kinder to your wallet than weekend ones. April also brings Khmer New Year, a busy stretch for travel inside Cambodia, so plan that month early. Book a few months ahead for the dry season, and keep an eye on the calendar for dips.

Every option on this route is a connecting one. Qatar Airways, Etihad Airways, Turkish Airlines and Fly Dubai route you through the Gulf or Istanbul, while LOT Polish Airlines, Finnair, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Air France, Brussels Airlines and Helvetic Airways keep the first leg inside Europe and connect you onwards to Cambodia. Fly Dubai works on a low-cost model, so expect to pay separately for things that come bundled elsewhere. With the full-service carriers, standard fares usually include a checked bag, but the lightest economy bundles may not. Check the allowance on your exact fare before you commit.

Siem Reap is served by Siem Reap-Angkor and Angkor airports, and which one you land at depends on your airline and where you connect. Both sit outside the city, so the last leg of the trip is a road transfer rather than a walk to your hotel. Taxis and pre-booked cars are the usual way in: agree the fare before you set off, or arrange the pickup through your hotel. Allow time for immigration after a long connection, and keep a little local currency on you for the driver. If you are heading straight for the temples, the ride into town is short enough to do on landing day.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check whether your departure is from F. Chopin or Modlin, because Warsaw's two airports are far apart.
• Look at what each fare includes for baggage, especially on Fly Dubai and the lightest economy bundles.
• Make sure a connecting itinerary sits on one ticket, or leave a generous buffer if you book the legs separately.
• Confirm your entry documents for Cambodia, visa included, before you pay for the flight.
• Fly in June or in the shoulder months if price matters more to you than dry-season weather.
• Check the layover airport and the total journey time, not just the departure hour.
