Book a Flight to Warsaw

Poland’s capital has had a tough fight for survival over the centuries and it wears its battle scars with pride. But it’s not all about the past, this is city with a vibrant and exciting future, with a flourishing creative scene and bold modern architecture.


When to Book Flights to Warsaw

Warsaw is at its best in the summer, between June and August. It can get hot but this sprawling post-communist city seems to come alive in the heat. And this extra burst of energy more than makes up for the longer queues at the attractions and higher flight and accommodation prices.

In the winter, it can get very cold in Warsaw. Yet, there’s something about the brutalist architecture and Soviet-era design that seems to work best when the thermometer is firmly below zero. During this season cheap flights to Warsaw for a winter city break are widely available.


How to Find the Best Flight Deals to Warsaw

Warsaw might not have the widely-publicised charms of Krakow but it’s still a popular city break destination with an arts and culture scene that is bringing more and more visitors each year. With regular flights to Warsaw from several providers, you can usually get good value tickets throughout the year.

How to Get Around in Warsaw

While it is possible to rent cars in the city, it is not always the best option as parking can be an issue in many areas.

The public transport options are good and relatively very cheap. There are around 200 bus routes and 30 tram lines, covering most of the city, so getting around is cheap and straightforward. The Metro, which opened in 1995, is one of the newest in Europe and consists of two lines, although it does not run through some of the more popular tourist areas.

Taxis are plentiful, but different companies can charge varying rates, and some are way more expensive than others.


What are the Must-Sees in Warsaw?

Take a tour of Warsaw’s rebuilt Old Town, where you can get a real sense of what the city was like before the destruction of the Second World War.

For a taste of contemporary Warsaw, take a beer tour, sampling some of the many new brews in the city’s craft beer revolution.

There are plenty of museums to visit too, with the Warsaw Uprising Museum a real must, and Warsaw is also a very musical city, so a concert at the Polish National Opera or Warsaw Philharmonic will let you experience the sounds and composers that have made it so.

How to survive the flight to Warsaw?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’ve planned ahead. Check out these essential travel tips that will get your Warsaw holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a few magazines. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pack a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Warsaw?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Warsaw in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Keep your passport and boarding pass at hand. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to present to airport security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
