How to buy cheap flight tickets from Dortmund to Tbilisi
- Book your tickets 1.5-2 months before you travel.
- Choose a midweek departure rather than a weekend. Demand for travel is lower on working days, so tickets are cheaper.

- Use a search engine that brings together almost every airline and flight, so that you can find and book the ticket you want with less effort.
Direct flights from Dortmund to Georgia
There is no non-stop service between Dortmund and Tbilisi, but you can still reach Georgia without a connection: Wizz Air flies Dortmund — Kutaisi twice a week, on Tuesdays and Saturdays. The flight takes about 4 hours. The schedule changes from season to season, so check the operating days when you book.
Getting from Kutaisi Airport to Tbilisi:
- Bus — Georgian Bus services are timed to arriving flights and drop passengers in central Tbilisi, at Liberty Square. The journey takes roughly 4 hours.
- Train — from Kopitnari station, a few kilometres from the terminal, the trip to Tbilisi takes about 3.5 hours. Trains are not tied to flight times, so check the timetable in advance.
- Taxi or private transfer — the quickest and most comfortable option, though also the most expensive. The car takes you straight to your hotel.
The most convenient connecting routes to Tbilisi
- Via Vienna — Dortmund to Vienna with Wizz Air, then Vienna to Tbilisi with Austrian Airlines or Georgian Airways.
- Via Warsaw — Dortmund to Warsaw with Wizz Air, then Warsaw to Tbilisi with LOT Polish Airlines.
- Via Istanbul — Dortmund to Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen and on to Tbilisi with Pegasus Airlines. The advantage here is that both legs are flown by the same airline on a single booking.
- Via Munich, Berlin or Amsterdam — Tbilisi has non-stop flights from Munich (Lufthansa, Georgian Airways), Berlin (Eurowings, Georgian Airways) and Amsterdam (Transavia, Georgian Airways).
Keep in mind that Dortmund is a comparatively small airport served mainly by low-cost carriers. Düsseldorf Airport lies about 70 km away, and reaching Tbilisi from there via Istanbul with Turkish Airlines or via Munich with Lufthansa is often faster. It is worth comparing prices for both airports.
How long is the whole journey?
- Dortmund — Kutaisi (non-stop): about 4 hours.
- Dortmund — Tbilisi with one stop: the quickest options take 6-7 hours; with a longer layover the trip can exceed 10 hours.
- The Munich — Tbilisi leg alone: about 3 hours 55 minutes.
Pay attention to the connection time when you book. If you buy the two legs separately, on two different tickets, the airline is not responsible for a delay on the first flight and you will have to collect and re-check your baggage yourself.
