Fedor MuhosranskiyNovember 18, 2017Airport is good, but VERY SLOW security and passport check. U must be very fast and brash if u have only an hour between flights. Seriously, people, such crowds decrease the safety of this place.
Little PhilDecember 22, 2018If you are flying from the EU and then going international (leaving the continent,) get food before going through the international customs. There are barely any food options past Polish customs.
Dmytro TsypkinApril 13, 2015The passport control is crazy as everywhere in Poland. But anyway it's less crazy here comparing to Katowice.
Magnus JernApril 12, 2017Nice food and coffee shops. Free wifi. McDonald's. Shopping is pretty poor except duty free.
Barna JardanyApril 9, 2013Fast lane security is hidden at the right hand side corner. Follow business class signs.
There is a water fountain next to the inside Costa Coffee Shop.
Daniel ZegarraJune 12, 2013In the 2nd floor the cafe in the waiting zone (before pass the boarding zone) have open wifi.
Marcin KrJanuary 31, 2013Getting the WiFi access at those machines is really hard, but finally you can do it. And the access is only for 30 minutes.
Florian DMay 20, 2013Bus 175 takes you to Center and Old Town in 40 minutes, among others. If you are cheap and have the time...
- New train line opened from airport to city center Cheaper than taxi and definitely convenient!
Get some cash before leaving the airport, credit cards might not work everywhere. There are at least a couple of ATMs in the hall just before exiting the building.
Watch out for street parking- police is super fast here to give tickets!
Ewa AgamiJanuary 1, 2015Marble jungle with all gates in one long line making it a pain in the neck if you land in gate 6 and fly from gate 43... Clean. Impersonal. Expensive food by Polish standards.
very crowded airport! remember to be at least one hour before the flight if you don't want to miss your flight. the security control is a real mess and nobody controls the number of open gates!
Tautvydas DagysSeptember 17, 2013To get free internet here is big pain. it took me 15 minutes to findout that. Codes aren't sent over mobile phones. And to scan your boarding pass on terminal, you need to position it precisely at 90d
Alyona ChJuly 29, 2017Nice airport, all good. Bad thing : you can only charge your phone sitting on the floor close to the toilets 🚽:/
Network "Chopin Airport Free WIFI" works really good. You can get pasword via sms.
Darshan RangnathAugust 16, 2015Skip the cab line, and take the bus into the city. 30min for $4.40 PLN.
Tomas SApril 7, 2019Free WiFi is nice but unable to use VPN thru it. Causes some issues if you have to work on the go.
Jo Van HoveOctober 14, 2011taxis are cheap in Warsaw - but there are 4 tarifs - plse make sure that taximeter is on '1' during daytime !! otherwise bad surprise. Airport to city is around 35 zloti...
Alina Maatjes-SiletskayaMarch 9, 2013Pretty sad and boring airport, really not much to do. If you have a long stopover, better go explore Warsaw for a few hours. Bus 175 takes you there for a bit less than 1 EUR and takes 30 min.
Alexa TaukchiMarch 10, 2017The most tourist unfriendly place I've ever been to! The airport free wi fi doesn't work and no one knows why, half of the staff knows no word in English!
If the security line at the new terminal is long. Head over to the old terminal (2 min walk). The line at the old terminal is usually much shorter.
- Modern pleasant airport but 'entertainment' options are limited
AleksasJuly 25, 2012Relaxed and spacious airport I really enjoy coming here, it's a pity that recently WiFi doesn't work here at all
Christopher HillMay 3, 2017Free WiFi only needs an email to sign on, doesn't have to be a real one. Airport is small but clean. Not much variety but what there is is good.
Jon CampJune 8, 2013Traveling internationally and want a beer while waiting. 15 zlota at the restaurant but not 6 at the duty free shop down stairs.
Maria TsingouMarch 7, 2016I just spend 5 hours looking for a comfortable place to sit and trying to connect to the "free Internet" ... no such luck. The shops are OK, the cafes are not so good.
Jonatan AgamiDecember 30, 2014It's a big modern airport with speakers that are way too loud. Many places to sit, though made out of metal. Very expensive food compared to regular Polish prices.
Difficult to find. Exit the arrivals to the street, then turn right and walk to the end of the terminal. Go down the stairs just before the bus terminal. Ticket machine just inside.
Simona OzomováOctober 7, 2016Regular airport, the food court has a weird policy - you wait for your food and then again for checkout at the common counter.
strOctober 2, 2014there is a nice coffeshop not even crowded at direction of gate 45, around 36. unfortunatly I should have realized earlier
Follow the big arrows on the ground to get to baggage claim
