LOT Polish Airlines has confirmed it will base an additional Boeing 737 MAX at Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport, launching new services to Brussels, Oslo and Bergen at the start of the 2026 summer timetable. The move, unveiled at a 10 December press conference, strengthens the Tri-City’s connectivity to two key business markets—Belgium and Norway—and positions LOT to compete head-on with low-cost rivals Ryanair, Wizz Air and Norwegian.
The Gdańsk-Brussels route begins 29 April with four weekly frequencies, providing direct access for Pomeranian ship-yards, IT firms and EU institutions. The five-times-weekly Oslo flight and thrice-weekly Bergen service, starting 29–30 April, cater to Poland’s large offshore-energy workforce commuting to Norway and to growing leisure demand.
Whether you’re flying east or west on these new routes, VisaHQ can streamline the visa process for both Belgium and Norway. From its Poland portal (https://www.visahq.com/poland/), travelers can complete Schengen applications online, receive personalized document checklists and opt for convenient courier pickup—saving valuable time before boarding LOT’s additional Boeing 737 MAX departures.
For corporate mobility managers the schedule offers same-day returns, business-class cabins and through-ticketing via LOT’s Star Alliance network. Travel buyers can expect negotiated fares to remain competitive; the carrier says incremental capacity will not affect Warsaw hub operations. Gdańsk Airport plans minor terminal tweaks to handle an extra 200,000 passengers a year.
The expansion aligns with Poland’s broader strategy to decentralise air traffic away from Warsaw and support regional economic clusters. Employers in northern Poland should review travel policies to leverage the new non-stops, while expatriates gain additional options for weekend trips home.
