How to get to town from Warsaw Airport by train - featuring Line S2 and Pesa Elf 27WE

- The Warsaw Frederic Chopin Airport is served by frequent rail services operated by the SKM (Szybka Kolej Miejska, Fast City Rail) and KM (Koleje Mazowieckie, Masovian Railways). To reach the train station, turn right when you enter the Arrival Hall and follow the signs. It is a roughly 300m walk to the station which is located underground. Some ticket machines can be found along the way. I recommend using the red SKM machines because they sell tickets that can be used on virtually all forms of public transport within Warsaw.
Warsaw public transport is very cheap! Since I was unsure of the length of my journey, I bought a 75 minute ticket, which is valid for 75 minutes following first use, for 4.40 złoty, worth just under £1, around €1, US$1.19 or HK$9.30. And given the length of my stay (4 days/3 nights), I could have bought a 72 hour ticket for 36 zł, worth around £7.43, €8.33, US$9.77 or HK$76.70.
Warsaw Airport is served by 2 SKM lines, S2 and S3. I took the S2 train service operated by the SKM, served by a PESA ELF 27WE train. I sat down after validating my ticket by sticking it into one of the tiny yellow machines on the train. Afterwards, I stuck my action camera onto the window and recorded the entire 19 minute journey to Warsaw Ochota station, where I got off. I hope you enjoy the train footage!
My hotel was conveniently located right next to the station, so I was able to quickly check in, drop my stuff off and enjoy my first evening in Warsaw.

From the airport to the center, a 20-minute ticket is enough
Nie wystarczy. Do dworca Śródmieście jedziesz co najmniej 23 minuty. Ostatnio jechałem 27
Thanks. This is an awesome video and very helpful. Haven't been in Poland for over a decade so I have no idea what to expect.
When would you be going?
It's better to take a seat on the right side of the train, then you will have a better view of Warsaw city (:
Between Warszawa Ochota and Warszawa Powiśle stations trains go underground like metro so there is nothing interesting to see out there (the platforms of the Central Railway Station are located underground too). Really good view from the trains is between Warszawa Wschodnia (W. East) and the Vistula (Wisła) river only. Just before entering the bridge to Warsaw City you can see National Stadium (Stadion Narodowy). Warszawa Stadion is nearest station (ca. 400 meters) from the Stadium and local trains only stop there. Under the train station there is a metro line (M2).
This is brilliant, thank you very much, you've earned yourself a subscriber :)
Thank's for video, was very useful! All the best!
Glad to see it is still being viewed after so long!
Great video thanks 👍🏼🇵🇱
Thank u for this. Very helpful video.
thank you so much
You're welcome. Do you plan to visit Poland any time soon?
damn stunning, what a trip....very informative video though
awesome dear watching from Pakistan
Very good and useful. Thanks
Thank you. I will have to go from Chopin airport railway station to Modlin airport.
Its still working
another tip: timer starts when you validate the ticket. So don't do it too early, but right after train starts moving.
This is great
I am glad you enjoyed it. Are you a railway fan or do you plan to visit Warsaw?
@@kylohk I'm searching for Warsaw to Torun information
"The ticket is so small. Be careful not to swallow it." :)
Good one!
@@kylohk Do you really find it so very small? Metro tickets in Europe are more or less the same size.
@@fox570808 Yes, almost all paper train tickets in the UK and China are the size of credit cards.
@@kylohk But this one in not a "classical" train ticket. It's the ticket like those for metro trains, trams and buses.
Intercity trains tickets are bigger. More and more tickets are sold by Internet and smartphone apps so maybe in 10 years classic tickets (generally printed ones) will be in minority. You don't have to look for ticket machine oraz shops with tickets. Sometimes you travel at night or you are a foreigner and electronic ticket is just right for you. Some places which sell tickets don't have all of them (there are many kind of tickets, like weekend one, for groups of tourists, for a large families (2 adults and 3 kids). If you plan to stay longer best way is to have a Warsaw Urban Card (card that look like credit card with your picture on it). It's good for loading long term tickets (eg. 30/90 days). While paying and loading electronic ticket on this kind of card it's good to validate that ticket right after that by staff on Passenger Service Point or by ticket machine or just right after take on the vehicle. Sometimes we see people that are strangers not living in Warsaw and they have problems with tickets controllers (Reason: electronic ticket is not valid until validated by putting it close to the ticket validator, green light appears and some short sound come out and now you can continue your trip).
can I put QR code on the card reader? I am going to warsaw chopin airport soon
How did you know your destination is zone 1?😊
My goodness, it’s a local train 😳😳😳😳
is it good or not?😂
Remember to have a proper ticket for particular train/bus.

Thank you for great information for foreigners
Should take only red trains from the airport with that ticket ? Thank you for the substitute to the slow 175 bus and other bus lines.
Green trains belong to another carrier (KM), but they also accept a ticket from red machines (ztm / wtp) within the city of Warsaw, but outside the city you already have to buy their own tickets, so it's better to use red trains (SKM), because belong to WTP. With the red ticket, you can also use other vehicles belonging to the WTP, i.e. metro, buses and trams
Hi! I will be arriving in warsaw aiport. I can buy ticket and ride train going to poznan glowny.or i still need to go some other train station?
You will have to change for example on Warszawa Zachodnia (Warsaw West) station. Only metropolitan (SKM) and regional (KM) trains service the airport. :)
I have a question can anybody answer my question please? I bought a ticket from warsaw chopin airport to warsaw zachodnia but it is not skm it is km the green ones i think its name is koleje mazowiecke. Should i get on from the same location in the airport and i bought my ticket online i will print it, do you think it will cause a trouble for me? Btw thanks for the video it is very useful :)

The green one is cheaper I believe
If I put 50 zloty or 100 zloty to the ticket machine, does it give change?
Yes, it does.
Yes, but it does not take bills higher than 50zł
Is this a 24/7 train?
Raise Productions good question
@@sosiimartinez2268 Nope. Last train goes about 10-11pm, then up to 5am a night replacement bus rides every about 30mins. The bus can be used on the same ticket.
Night transportation to and from an airport only by night bus. Taxi too but if you like your wallet and money in it choose public transport.
Can i go to Lublin city from Warsaw airport by train
As far as I'm aware there's no direct train from airport (there should be a bus) but you can take a train from Warsaw city centre to Lublin. I'm going to have this exact trip next month :) .
@@petitenoire thanks:) i am there now it's amazing
Does both S3 and S2 go into central station in the city?
Sure :)
No, there was a change. S2 goes to the Center and then further to the East. S3 now goes around the Center and to the North.

@@RockMetalElectronicPlaylists Exactly: "From 15.12.2019 till further notice the S3 SKM trains run via Warszawa Gdańska station, without stopping at Warszawa Wschodnia and Warszawa Centralna stations."
Wait its 1 euro to get to the town?? No fucking way.
You can walk if it’s too much for you :)
@@jendorei Small brains, that means it's really cheap. Travel from Vienna's airport to the city it's gonna cost you 14 euros.
@@GoznerPeter Obviously is cheap, he was being facetious. Too bad you have a small brain to realize this
@@GoznerPeter I took that train in Vienna couple years ago, it was just 3euros and change. Is it really 14 now?
Haha i to grafitti po wyjeździe z tunelu🤣
Co w tym takiego zabawnego?
Sobie przypomniałem śmieszne napisy na ścianach: "Lopez czuwa..... oj", albo "Kaszanka Forever". Napis na przystanku: "Diabeł rządzi ciemnością" a ktoś inny dopisał: "Elektrownia rządzi światłem". Ludzie to mają dziwne pomysły. English:
I've remembered the funny inscriptions on the walls: "Lopez is watching ..... oh", or "Black pudding Forever". The inscription on the bus stop: "The devil rules the dark" and someone else added: "The power plant rules the light". People have strange ideas.
Poland doesn't look poor at all
