London to Katowice flights

Flights from London to Katowice arrive at Katowice Pyrzowice Airport. Wizz Air flies there from Luton, a major base for the airline, while Ryanair departures leave from Stansted. Cheap flights from London to Katowice start from £18.

When departing for Poland from the UK capital, your choice of airport often dictates your carrier. Wizz Air flights to Katowice leave from the single terminal building at London Luton (LTN). If you are flying from London Stansted (STN), most Ryanair services operate from the main terminal, where you can access the gates via a short transit system.

After landing at Katowice Pyrzowice Airport (KTW), you can take the AP bus line to Katowice's main railway station in the city centre.

If you prefer a direct transfer, a private hire vehicle or taxi from the designated ranks outside the arrivals hall can reach the city centre in approximately 35 minutes. Car hire desks are also available at the airport.

Katowice is a compelling destination for fans of 20th-century design, particularly in the Srodmiescie district where Bauhaus and International Style buildings stand alongside the Spodek, a massive disk-shaped arena often called the UFO. For a deeper look at the region's heritage, the Silesian Museum, built on the site of a former coal mine, houses significant art and history collections.

Beyond the urban core, you can find a change of pace in the Murcki district, which is home to the ancient Murckowski Forest and its numerous nature reserves. In the evenings, the pedestrianised St Mary's Street is the place to go for local beer and terraces, leading toward the impressive St Mary's Church.
