Ukraine Away 14 June 2022

Out of curiosity, which site are you looking up trains on? There seems to be a few ive come across, im sure most are reliable and accurate but if there was one recognised site as the best to use b handy to note.

this is the polish railways website where you can buy tickets Rob > http://www.intercity.pl/en/

there's no rush to buy tickets. the polish railway network is world class and there's always plenty of space on the trains. 

you just need to change the language to english, however you will still need to put in the names of where you're travelling from and to in polish. for example if travelling from warsaw you would be leaving from 1 of 3 stations, warszawa wschodnia (warsaw east), warszawa centralna (warsaw central) or warszawa zachodnia (warsaw west). all trains from warsaw to lodz stop at these stations so just pick the one handiest for you, most irish lads travelling through warsaw will be catching a train from central or west. warsaw west is the closest to chopin airport (roughly 15 mins on the S2 train), last time i checked buses from modlin airport terminate at warsaw west. 

the station in lodz city centre is called Łódź Fabryczna, there's another station called Łódź Widzew but that is in the suburbs so if you get off there you'll need to get a taxi for the rest of the journey unless you fancy walking an hour or so to the city centre. 

looking at the website prices to travel on a train leaving tomorrow from warsaw to lodz cost less than 4 euro or about 11 euro if you're looking to catch a train today.

Top Stuff!! thanks for that!

Yeah was looking at Poznan myself but might go Krakow now, might even go out sunday stay the night there, Its actually cheaper Sun-Wed than Mon -Wed, and head up to Lodz Monday Morning on the direct train at 9am but either Sunday or Monday its looking like a great option!

Have ye booked the train, if so what site did you use? Seeing different times on two different sites for the intercity train without any changes on two sites and on one its saying its not available to book. Probably could chance booking the trains closer to the time but be good to know. Think ill pull the trigger on the Krakow flights tonight.

Ah yeah, The times that are showing look favourable alright and can sort it out in the next while... Have the Sun-Wed flights locked in while theyre at that price!!
