Cheap Flights from Warsaw to San Francisco Starting at $373

Warsaw Chopin Airport (WAW) is the city’s main international gateway and typically handles the bulk of full-service carriers and many regional and long-haul flights. It’s located about 10 km (6 miles) south-west of the city centre, with frequent S2/S3 suburban trains taking roughly 20–25 minutes and costing around 3–6 PLN; taxis and ride-hailing trips usually take 20–30 minutes and can be noticeably pricier. The airport tends to be perceived as mid-range in price, offering a mix of business services and compact terminals — convenient for central Warsaw but sometimes busy during peak hours. Pros: direct connections, good public-transport links; cons: can be crowded and parking/peak taxi fares may add cost. Warsaw Modlin Airport (WMI) is generally positioned as a budget and low-cost alternative serving many discount carriers and charter flights. It lies around 35–40 km (22–25 miles) north-west of central Warsaw; a dedicated shuttle/rail link usually takes about 40–60 minutes with fares commonly in the low tens of PLN/EUR, while taxis can be significantly more expensive and take 40–60 minutes depending on traffic. Modlin can be cheaper on low-cost routes but is more remote and has fewer amenities than Chopin. Pros: often lower fares and simpler operations; cons: longer transit to the centre and more limited services and connections.

San Francisco International Airport (SFO) is the region’s main international hub, handling a mix of long-haul carriers and major U.S. airlines alongside some premium transcontinental services. It’s about 13 miles south of downtown San Francisco, with BART the most direct public option in roughly 30–40 minutes; tickets typically fall in the low double digits. Airport shuttles and ride-hailing can reach downtown in 25–45 minutes depending on traffic, usually costing more than public transit. SFO is generally well-equipped with lounges, dining and shops but can be busy during peak hours; its strengths are international connectivity and amenities, while congestion and occasional delays are common trade-offs.
