LOT Polish airlines is a very interesting carrier to analyze. The Polish national carrier has transformed its fleet, incorporating modern planes, and grown its network in an ambitious fashion. The carrier just recently opened its first proprietary lounge in North America, at Chicago O’Hare, and is now announcing the introduction of a new route from one of the airports served with flights from Chicago itself.

LOT Polish Airlines Introduces Flight LO337 From Krakow to Paris

The newest route the polish carrier will be introducing in its network will see it connect Krakow international airport with Parish Orly. Pay attention, not CDG, but Orly. Just want to make sure you don’t get them mixed up and somehow have issues with a connection of some sort.

The flight is particularly interesting, it will become immediately a permanent presence in the airline’s schedule year-round. What makes it interesting is that on Mondays it will become a possible feeder flight for Krakow’s (KRK) only LOT intercontinental flight to Chicago O’Hare. Exactly the airport the Polish carrier recently opened its first US lounge at and coincidentally a Star Alliance key airport.

The flight as mentioned will operate every day of the week following this schedule:

The maiden voyage for flight LO337 from Krakow to Paris Orly is scheduled to operate on March 31st 2025

Usual European Configuration on One of LOTs Boeing 737 MAX

Nothing special or to write home about regarding the aircraft type and specifically the cabin configuration. The plane will be one of LOT’s Boeing 737 MAX 8 jets and it will feature a standard 3-3 (six seats abreast) throughout the cabin with no dedicated or real business class seats. Business class will be created in European fashion by blocking the central seat of the three and offering better catering. Personally, not something I would pay 3 or 4 hundred euro on unless in a larger long-haul booking as you can read about in this review.
