The 75-minute ticket, PLN 4.40, works on SKM trains and the RL train to Warszawa Płudy. Children under seven ride free; ages 7 to 16 and students under 26 with an ISIC pay PLN 2.20. The cheaper 20-minute ticket (PLN 3.40) runs out before every central station except Zachodnia. Buy at the station entrance or on board — on-board machines take cards only and validate on purchase.

How to get there

From arrivals to Warszawa Centralna on the S3 (21 min)

Three steps once you have collected your bags.

01

Find the station

Warszawa Lotnisko Chopina station.

02

Buy and validate a ticket

Before boarding — a ticket bought but not validated can be fined.

03

Ride to Warszawa Centralna on the S3 (21 min)

21–23 min.

Worth knowing

The S2 runs at :26 and :56, 04:56–23:56, every day; the S3 at :11, 06:11–23:11; the RL at :41, 05:41–23:41. From 06:11 to 23:56 that's a train every 15 minutes.

A ticket from the machine on the train is validated the moment it is printed. If the train is still standing at the airport, wait until it moves.

S2 goes to Śródmieście, S3 and RL to Centralna. They leave from the same platform, and the S3 and RL share a track; check the screen.

On the RL, a Koleje Mazowieckie train, validate the ZTM ticket in the validator on board, or board by the first door and show it to the train manager. Outside the airport section the RL does not take 20-, 75- or 90-minute ZTM tickets at all.

Nobody on the train sells tickets, the on-board machines take cards only, and SKM tickets are not sold at railway station ticket offices. Cash buyers use the machines at the station entrance.

Before 06:11 only the S2 runs, every 30 minutes from 04:56, plus the 05:41 RL.
