- Thanks to the extensive network of connections offered by LOT Polish Airlines, a European destination may turn out to be the most appealing option for a short trip.
- Bologna, Nice, Larnaca, Istanbul, and Madrid – five cities, five different rhythms and characters, all waiting to be discovered.
City breaks are very popular, and for good reason. A weekend getaway to a completely different place gives one a chance to relax and gain a new perspective. This means that, without using any days off work, one can enjoy the sights of European landmarks or relax on beautiful beaches. And if the weekend is extended just slightly, picturesque suburbs and natural landscapes of the specific destination may be explored as well.
A city break is a great way to discover new places, experience their culture, and sample the local cuisine in a short amount of time, without having to plan a long vacation. Bologna, Nice, Larnaca, Istanbul, and Madrid are among the destinations that are particularly well-suited for short, attractive summer trips that will definitely create some truly unforgettable experiences. Thanks to the convenient connections LOT Polish Airlines offers from Warsaw and other regional airports, those cities become easily accessible. I am confident that our offering will inspire passengers to spend a few days discovering new places and enjoying travelling.

Bologna and the entire Emilia-Romagna region offer numerous attractions. The city itself boasts more than 62 km of arcades, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a vibrant academic community, and Piazza Maggiore – home to all of Bologna’s most important landmarks. When venturing a little further from the metropolitan area, it is worth visiting the Food Valley, where one may sample authentic Italian specialties such as Prosciutto di Parma, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, balsamic vinegar, and tortellini. LOT Polish Airlines operates this route as frequently as 6 times per week, giving you plenty of flexibility when planning your trip.

LOT Polish Airlines flights to Nice, in turn, may be taken advantage of daily – as many as 10 times a week. The city is a gateway to the French Riviera at its best. Nice has no shortage of seaside promenades and stunning beaches – suitable for those who enjoy the hustle and bustle of a big city and those who prefer a more peaceful hideout. Water sports enthusiasts, e.g. divers, will also find something to enjoy here. It is a great way to discover a completely different, mysterious side of the French Riviera. All this makes Nice a perfect destination for all those who enjoy relaxing in the Mediterranean climate.

LOT Polish Airlines also offers 8 weekly flights to Larnaca – a city boasting a truly unmatched blueish tint and clarity of the sea. This part of Cyprus holds many memories of centuries past. The main attractions here include the Orthodox Church of St. Lazarus which, according to the legend, was erected over the saint’s tomb, and the Hala Sultan Tekke Mosque, located right next to a salt lake that turns out to be a favourite habitat for flamingos. Other historical attractions of the city include the Pierides Archaeological Museum and the Kamares Aqueduct – monuments dating from the pre-Christian era and later centuries.

Travellers from Warsaw, Gdansk, and Krakow can take advantage of flights to Istanbul – with 30 of them available each week. So, there is plenty to choose from. The flights are nearly as numerous as the attractions of the unique city, where various cultures meet. It is right here that you can enjoy both a European and an Asian vacation during a single weekend. The Grand Mosque and Hagia Sophia are, of course, must-see stops on any tour of this magnificent city. However, to truly soak up its atmosphere, you have to take a stroll through the Grand Bazaar, where the exotic scents, lively conversations, and the rich offering spark everyone’s imagination. A cruise on the Bosphorus is also a perfect addition to a city break, as it lets one experience Istanbul from a completely different perspective.
