  • Koleje Malopolskie runs the SKA1 line, with air conditioning, wifi, power sockets and at least 138 seats per train.

  • Ticket machines on board take cash or cards, which removes the usual worry about buying before you board.

The Wieliczka trick

  • The SKA1 does not terminate in Krakow. It continues to Wieliczka Rynek Kopalnia, the stop for the salt mine.
  • That is a direct train from the airport to one of Poland's most visited sights, for 24.00 PLN.
  • The whole run takes 44 minutes end to end, against just under 20 minutes airport to city.

Buying

  • On the train, from the machine, in cash or by card.
  • At the Koleje Malopolskie sales point in the terminal, staffed from 08:10 to 19:45.
