Cheap flights from Warsaw to Split

March is the cheapest month on this route, and it is also a quiet time on the Croatian coast before the summer crowds arrive. Fares climb through spring and stay high across the summer season, when Split fills with beach traffic, then ease again in autumn once the swimming season ends. Winter is cheap but cold at both ends, and some services thin out. Midweek departures usually undercut Friday and Sunday flights, so shifting your trip by a day or two can change the total. Book well ahead for summer and around Polish and Croatian school holidays, and leave the last-minute booking to the quiet months.

Wizz Air and Wizz Air Malta sit at the low-cost end of this route, with a small cabin bag in the basic fare and everything else charged as an extra, so price your luggage before you compare totals. LOT Polish Airlines is the full-service carrier flying non-stop, with fare types that bundle more into the ticket. The remaining names on the route — KLM Cityhopper and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Norwegian and Norwegian International, Austrian, Air Dolomiti and Air Baltic — sell connecting itineraries rather than direct flights, and what is included depends on the fare family you choose. On low-cost tickets the total is what matters, not the headline price.

Split airport is the only airport serving the city, so every flight on this route lands in the same place. It sits outside the centre, and the usual ways into town are the airport bus, a taxi or a pre-booked transfer; in summer the coastal roads get busy, so allow extra time if you land on a peak weekend. If you are heading to the islands or further down the coast, check whether your accommodation is actually in Split or in a nearby town before you book the transfer. Car hire desks are at the airport, and the road south is slow in season. Late arrivals should have a transfer arranged in advance, since options thin out after the last buses.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which Warsaw airport your ticket leaves from, F. Chopin or Modlin, because they sit on opposite sides of the city.
• On Wizz Air and other low-cost fares, add a cabin bag and a checked bag to the price before you compare it with a full-service ticket.
• If you book a connection as separate tickets, leave a long gap between flights and confirm whether your bags are checked through.
• Carry a valid passport or identity card for Croatia and check the entry rules that apply to your nationality.
• Look at March first if your dates are flexible, and book summer travel well ahead.
• Arrange your transfer from Split airport before a late arrival, especially in the summer season.
