Expanding European Presence
The national carrier of Poland, LOT Polish Airlines, has announced the addition of two new European destinations to its network. From March 30, 2026, the airline will establish a one-way direct link between Bologna and Warsaw. In other words, there will be a nonstop service from the Italian town to the Polish capital. The other is Porto, the second regular destination in Portugal, after Lisbon. Between Porto and Warsaw, the airline will operate nonstop flights in both directions, starting May 25, 2026.
Detailing the Bologna-Warsaw route
The one-way offering will be a year-round affair, offered six times per week. On three days, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, flight LO-328 will depart from Bologna and arrive in Warsaw at 11:40 and 13:50, respectively. However, on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays, flight LO-330 will begin its journey at 18:25 and conclude it at 20:35. All times mentioned are local.
LOT Polish Airlines will use Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft to ferry passengers. Once live, Bologna will become the fourth city in Italy, after Rome, Milan, and Venice, to have a direct link with Warsaw. This route will open further connection options for travellers via Warsaw. The list includes Delhi, Tokyo, Chicago, New York JFK, Krakow, Stockholm, and Tallinn.
