How much is a flight from Warsaw to Krakow?

The cost of a flight from Warsaw to Krakow depends on the date, the time of day, the carrier, the fare class and how far ahead you book. Airlines sell seats in tiers that rise as the plane fills, so the same seat can cost several times more on a holiday weekend than on a quiet Tuesday. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we verify the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost by WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the e-ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.

Cheapest flight from Warsaw to Krakow: how to pay less

Finding cheap flights from Warsaw to Krakow is timing plus flexibility. Here is how Haqqi Tours finds the lowest fare on the route:

• Tell us if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
• Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we check
• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
• Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays

We answer "what is the cheapest way to fly from Warsaw to Krakow?" many times a day; the answer for your travel date comes back on WhatsApp with the booking ready to confirm.

Departure: Warsaw Chopin Airport (WAW)

Flights from Warsaw to Krakow leave from Warsaw Chopin Airport (WAW), serving Warsaw - warsaw is the capital of Poland, rebuilt after the war around its Old Town and now a city of glass towers on the Vistula, with Chopin Airport (WAW) only about 10 km south-west of the centre and Modlin Airport (WMI) about 40 km to the north for low-cost flights. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: The SKM and KM trains link Chopin Airport to Śródmieście in about 20 minutes and bus 175 runs to the Old Town; both are decent for one traveller, while Modlin has only a bus-and-train combination of over an hour, so a car to the hotel door is the simple option from either airport.

• Ask us about the terminal and fast-track options at Warsaw Chopin Airport
• Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one
• Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference
• Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the e-ticket - names must match exactly

Arrival: Kraków John Paul II Airport (KRK) and getting into Krakow

You arrive at Kraków John Paul II Airport (KRK). The airport train reaches Kraków Główny in about 18 minutes and is a fair option for one traveller, but the Old Town beyond is a pedestrian and restricted zone with cobbles; for Zakopane or an early Auschwitz visit there is no practical rail, so most guests book the car. If you would rather not think about it, we book a private transfer from the airport to your hotel in Krakow, with the driver tracking the flight in case it is late.

Onward flights or trains from Krakow the same day can be added to the booking; let us know and we choose a Warsaw to Krakow departure that leaves a safe connection.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Warsaw to Krakow flight

Baggage is the item that most frequently changes the real cost of a flight from Warsaw to Krakow. Full-service fares generally include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.

• Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
• Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
• Seat selection free or paid depending on the carrier; families seated together on request
• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare

Flying with children, families and groups from Warsaw to Krakow

Families fly the Warsaw to Krakow route with us week in, week out. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the airline offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines. We seat the family together, order children's meals where they exist and choose a departure time that suits nap and bedtime. For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the carrier for a group fare where the numbers justify it.

Things to do in Krakow when you land

Kraków is Poland's former royal capital, its medieval Main Square and Wawel Castle largely untouched, with John Paul II Airport (KRK) at Balice about 11 km west of the Old Town; the Wieliczka Salt Mine, Auschwitz-Birkenau and the Tatra resort of Zakopane are the classic day trips by road. Start with Schindler's Factory museum, the Wieliczka Salt Mine and Auschwitz-Birkenau memorial, then the Planty gardens ring and Zakopane and the Tatra Mountains. A tip from our desk: If your stay is in Zakopane or you want an Auschwitz or Wieliczka stop on the way in, say so when booking - the desk arranges it as one transfer rather than two bookings.

If you want the days in Krakow organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it by WhatsApp.

Best time to fly from Warsaw to Krakow

May to September and the Christmas market in December are busiest; winter is cold with snow, which makes Zakopane a ski trip and the airport road occasionally slow. For the fare itself, the cheapest flights from Warsaw to Krakow are found outside school holidays and major events, on mid-week days, booked early. Peak weeks sell out first and cost most; shoulder months give the best mix of weather, availability and price.

Return flight from Krakow to Warsaw

Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Krakow to Warsaw booked with the outbound is often cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.
