Cheap flights from Wroclaw to Tokyo

November is the cheapest month to fly this route, and fares stay reasonable in the quieter weeks on either side of it. Summer and the run-up to Christmas are the priciest, when travellers in Poland and Japan are both on the move. Midweek departures from Strachowice usually undercut weekend ones, and early departures tend to leave the shortest connections. For a November trip, booking a couple of months ahead is normally enough; for summer travel, start looking much earlier.

Nothing flies non-stop between Wroclaw and Tokyo, so every itinerary here connects somewhere. Qatar Airways, Emirates and Etihad Airways come with Gulf transfers, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and KLM Cityhopper usually pair up on the Amsterdam legs, Air France routes through Paris, LOT Polish Airlines keeps you in Polish hands as far as Warsaw, and Singapore Airlines and Scandinavian Airlines bring their own hubs into the mix. Wizz Air is the low-cost name on the list; the rest are full-service, so fare rules and what is included differ. Check baggage and seat selection on the low-cost leg before you compare totals.

Tokyo has two airports, Haneda and Narita, and they are not interchangeable. Haneda sits close to the city, so the transfer after landing is short, with the monorail and local trains getting you downtown quickly. Narita lies well outside the city, and the ride in takes noticeably longer by express train, airport bus or taxi. Check which airport your ticket actually uses before you plan the onward leg, and leave a generous buffer if you are connecting to a domestic flight or a train. Late arrivals into Narita leave fewer transport options.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check that both legs sit on one ticket, so a missed connection is the airline's problem and not yours.
• Confirm your baggage allowance on the Wizz Air leg if that is the cheap part of the itinerary.
• Decide whether you want to land at Haneda or Narita, because the transfer into Tokyo is very different.
• Check your passport and any entry requirements for Japan well before departure, not the week you fly.
• Book early if you are travelling in summer or around the New Year, and leave November free if price matters most.
• Allow a realistic connection time at the hub, because a short stop looks good until the first leg runs late.
