Warsaw Chopin Airport (WAW) is Poland’s main international hub, handling most long-haul and flag-carrier LOT flights alongside a mix of European carriers and some premium services. Located about 10 km southwest of the city centre, it’s typically reached in 20–30 minutes by S2/S3 express trains or 30–45 minutes by taxi, with public-transport fares usually low and taxi rides moderate. The airport is generally seen as more comfortable and better equipped for transfers than smaller fields, with ample lounges, shops and frequent connections. Downsides can include occasional peak-time queues and higher on-site prices compared with cheaper regional options.
Warsaw Modlin Airport (WMI) operates largely as a secondary, budget-oriented airport serving low-cost carriers, in particular Ryanair and other budget European airlines. Situated some 35–40 km northwest of central Warsaw, journey times are usually 40–60 minutes by the dedicated shuttle bus or train connections combined with local transport; shuttle fares and public-transit tickets are typically lower than main-hub taxis. Modlin can be cost-attractive for price-conscious travellers but may offer fewer facilities, less frequent services and can require longer transfer times, so it’s often chosen for cheaper fares rather than comfort or rapid connections.
John Paul II Kraków-Balice Airport (KRK) is the primary international gateway serving Kraków and southern Poland, operating as a mix of full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines, so fares can often be more budget-friendly compared with larger hubs. The airport sits about 11 km (roughly 20–30 minutes) west of the city center; transport options include frequent shuttle buses and municipal trains, taxis and ride-hailing — expect public transport fares to be low and taxi trips to vary with traffic. Pros: compact terminal, straightforward connections and good low-cost carrier coverage. Cons: can be busy in summer and transfer time to the historic center is longer than inner-city airports.
