The Portuguese Star Alliance member TAP is currently selling cheap flights from Warsaw to Chicago and Washington DC. Prices start at only €305 or even €273 if you book through an OTA. Luggage, however, is not included and would increase the price by roughly €95 – still leaving you with a good price.
Travelling to the USA is currently not possible. We sadly do not know when the entry-restrictions will be lifted. TAP will let you rebook the flights, only paying the fare difference. The only other option is to get your money back as a voucher, with 10% added value.
You would always first fly to Lisbon, from where you’d continue your trip to Chicago on an Airbus A330-900neo, or to Washington DC on an Airbus A321neo.
By the way, you can also fly to different destinations from Warsaw:

Information & Tips for USA
The USA offers many sights, natural wonders and cultural significance. Thanks to numerous airlines offering flights across the Atlantic, it is always pretty inexpensive to get there. Alternatively, you can also cross the Atlantic by boat.
Immigration, ESTA & Visa Requirements
The USA has one of the strictest entry regulations in the world. Most EU citizens, among others, are lucky to be able to participate in the so-called Visa Waiver Program. If you get an electronic entry permit (ESTA) for approximately €20, you don’t need a visa for entry.
The Best Time to Visit
Due to its sheer size, the perfect time to visit the USA varies greatly from region to region. In winter, Florida is very popular due to the mild temperatures. In the summer the West and East Coasts are flooded by tourists which drives up the prices for hotels and flights and during the Indian Summer in late autumn New England is a very popular destination. The hurricane season between July and September can be dangerous in the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico. Florida and the southern states are regularly struck by these tropical storms. Blizzards occur from the East Coast to the Midwest during the winter months and regularly put air traffic and public life on hold.
Currency
The US dollar is widely used throughout the world and accepted as a currency in most tourist hotspots worldwide. That being said, carrying cash isn’t necessary in the US, all you need is a credit card! These are very common in the USA and are accepted pretty much everywhere without any issues. If you already have a credit card in your wallet, you should make sure that it does not charge a foreign currency fee if possible. Carrying a few dollars in cash doesn’t hurt though. You might need cash e.g. for the bus ticket if you want to buy it directly from the driver. Most of the time you even have to give exact change.
