Popular Airlines and the Best Booking Times

Numerous airlines offer flights from Budapest to Thessaloniki, including frequent flights with Wizz Air, Ryanair, and occasionally LOT Polish Airlines or Turkish Airlines, the latter usually with a European connection. To find the cheapest flights, it is worth booking as early as possible, ideally 2-3 months before your trip. You can find better prices especially during periods outside the peak summer season, in May, early June, or September. The period around holidays and the summer months (July, August) are usually more expensive, but with continuous searching and flexible dates, you can still find good deals.

Tips for Saving Money and What to Consider When Booking

To reduce the price of airline tickets, we recommend using our price alert service, which will notify you when the price of the route drops. Flexible travel dates can also help a lot: try to travel on weekdays, Tuesday or Wednesday, as these days are often cheaper than weekend flights. Pay attention to promotional periods and last-minute offers as well, although these sometimes carry a higher risk due to being sold out. If you want to book the cheapest flight tickets, travel during the off-season.

Checked Baggage, Boarding and Transfers

Before booking your flight, always check the airline's baggage policy. Cheaper tickets usually only include a small carry-on bag, while larger carry-on baggage or checked baggage may incur additional fees. If you are traveling with a lot of luggage, it may be worth looking for a ticket that includes checked baggage, or calculate the extra cost into the ticket price. In the case of connecting flights, always make sure you have enough time for the transfer, especially if you need to pick up and re-check your baggage. Direct flights are usually more comfortable, but connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, so weigh the time and cost.

Direct or Connecting Flight: Which One Should You Choose?

Both types of flights are available on the Budapest – Thessaloniki route. Direct flights are ideal if you want to reach your destination as quickly as possible and don't want to rush between terminals. Travel time is usually shorter and there are fewer logistical challenges. Connecting flights are often cheaper, which can be attractive to budget-conscious travelers. If you choose a connecting trip, it is worth choosing a longer transfer time to avoid stress and possibly even leave the airport if time permits. In most cases, direct flights offer a better experience, but the price discount may make it worth considering connecting options if your goal is to book the cheapest flights.
