So you can plan your flights to Chisinau based on the weather that you like best!

However, it may prove difficult to find cheap flights to Chisinau during peak seasons (such as the summer months of June-August) as these also coincide with school holidays.

Chisinau overview
A flight to Chisinau will connect you with the largest city in Moldova, a place which has many great things to see and to do. Take a stroll in the Dendrarium park and enjoy the peace and quiet and the elegant walkways lined with some stunning tree specimens. The Stefan cel Mare Park with its lovely fountains is another great place for a walk or a picnic with your family. One of the most renowned features of Chisinau is the Victory Memorial and the Eternal Flame that burns within it. The memorial and the flame are there to commemorate the casualties of World War II. Visit the botanical gardens and the National Museum to learn more about the rich natural and cultural history of this amazing part of the world. If you are interested in culture and museums, then make sure to pay a visit of the Museum of Ethnography and Natural History (Muzeul National de Etnografie si Istorie Naturala) as well. Lovers of literature are sure to adore the town’s little, and very charming, Pushkin Museum, which celebrates the great writer’s visit to the city many years ago.
Getting around Chisinau
Chisinau is perhaps best known, in terms of public transport, for its trolley buses. These unique and quirky trolley buses will take you to all of the main attractions and quarters of the city. There are also buses available in the city centre, and they run from early morning to midnight every day. Public buses in Chisinau are very cheap, and so are a brilliant option if you are on a budget holiday. In the suburbs of the city, you are more likely to find privately operated minibuses than the public buses that are a common sight in the city centre. Moldova also has a good rail network, so you can take the train from Chisinau to explore the rest of the country if you like.
Getting from the Airport to the City
Once you arrive on your flight to Chi?in?u International Airport (KIV) you will be located around 8 miles to the south east of Chisinau town centre. This is the main international airport in Moldova. Hire a car, hail a taxi cab, or hop on an airport shuttle to reach your hotel in the city.
