Warsaw Chopin Airport (WAW) is Poland’s main international gateway and typically serves most full-service carriers and many international connections, while the smaller Warsaw Modlin (WMI) is positioned as a budget/dedicated low-cost alternative. Chopin sits roughly 10 km south of the city centre and can usually be reached by S2/S3 suburban rail or express bus in about 20–30 minutes; taxi or rideshare trips commonly take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic with fares typically higher than public transport. Modlin is around 40 km north-west of central Warsaw and is often reached by shuttle bus or train in roughly 40–60 minutes for modest fares, though transfers can feel less convenient. Pros: Chopin offers more frequent services, lounges and ground connections; Modlin can be cheaper on low-cost carriers but may be less comfortable and further from the centre.
