PLN 20 to any station named Kraków — Kraków Główny, Łobzów, Bronowice, Grzegórzki, Zabłocie, Płaszów; a return is PLN 40. Children under four travel free; PLN 12.60 for a child from four until school age; pupils and students pay PLN 10.20. The ordinary distance table would price this ride at PLN 7.50, and the PLN 10 joint 70-minute KMK+KMŁ ticket is void at this station. Wieliczka Salt Mine is PLN 24 on the same train, about 45 minutes. Buy from the machine on the train, the KMŁ desk on the airport platform 08:10 to 19:45, kolejemalopolskie.com.pl or the KOLEO and Jakdojade apps; the ticket is valid three hours.

Worth knowing
Every day: 04:17, 05:17, 06:17, then at :17 and :47 to 22:17, then 23:17, 00:07, 00:57 and 01:47 — 39 departures, 17 minutes to Kraków Główny on every one. On 24 September the three post-midnight trains run via Kraków Mydlniki and take 37 minutes.
The PLN 20 is an airport-only price. Every fare table in KMŁ's tariff says it does not apply to Kraków Lotnisko; the same distance elsewhere on the line is PLN 7.50.
Bus 300 from the forecourt is PLN 6 and, by the authority's stop coordinates, drops you nearer the Rynek than this train does. The train is the right answer for Kraków Główny itself and for anywhere on the line beyond it.
No train between 01:47 and 04:17. Night bus 902 covers those hours at 02:16, 03:16 and 03:51.
The last half-hourly train is 22:17; after that the intervals are 60, 50, 50 and 50 minutes.
