Flies out of Saskatoon, SK Canada to Katowice? Connections, etc? Or what is the best route out of Minneapolis, MN? Everytime I try to punch the end destination in as Katowice Poland it does not come up? Anyones, thoughts or experiences on flights, which air carrier, what connections you need, and costs would be much appreciated!!! Thanks SO much in advance!!

From the begining i tried to land in Katowice, but later i learned that the euromedic driver come to pick us up at Krakow also...

So finally i'm going to katowice, landind in Kracow...that is a big city very near to katowice... and it helps a lot to fix your flight.

I will be there from the 20th of june untill the 1 of july;)

HI, I used Master Card Travel agents and also points. We are flying out of Winnipeg on the 25th to Montreal-Frankfurt-Katowice. The connections are good with no major waits nor too short transfers. Also we asked for airport assistance. Air Canada and Lufthansa and the operators. You can also check out I2000 online. Get Travel Insurance.
We'll be in Tychy 26th and on.

I used Expedia and checked the prices/flights with itravel2000.

Flying there (June 22): Winnipeg-Toronto-Frankfurt-Katowice
Flying Back (June 30): Katowice-Warsaw-Toronto-Winnipeg

Flights are through AirCanada/Lufthansa I believe. It's pretty late so the prices will be a bit higher (I was looking two or three weeks ago and it was ~$500 less than it is now). Book soon!

Thank you all so so much for the replies!! I will look into all the information given and book accordingly. It looks like it will be cheaper for me to fly out of Saskatoon than Minneapolis (I am from small town North Dakota) So the drive to either airport is about a horse a piece.

It looks like I will hopefully get to meet some of you while we are over there?!

God Bless!

Sindy - We are just flying into Katowice, and being picked up there and taken to Tychy. I'm not sure where they are going, but we all are pretty much flying into the same place anyways!

Recommend you leave enough time in Frankfurt. Our flight was delayed leaving Canada and we only had a 2 hour layover in Frankfurt. We missed our connector. I looked at some possibilities for you and I could tell you in private pm if you would like.
