For a short domestic hop like Erfurt → Cologne, fares are mostly driven by how far ahead you book and the day of the week rather than the season — midweek departures (Tuesday and Wednesday) tend to be the cheapest, and prices usually firm up in the final 1–2 weeks before departure. Both nonstop and connecting flights are available on this route — nonstop options are usually worth the price difference for shorter trips. These are general booking patterns, not a guarantee — the best way to know for sure is to compare live prices for your exact dates.
