OTHER USEFUL INFORMATION

Please check if you fulfill all the travel requirements connected with Covid-19 restrictions. Please also make sure that you book flight tickets with flexible cancellation policy as neither home nor host universities will be able to offer any reimbursements in case of course cancellation or switch to virtual mode.

 

Airports:

To avoid confusion, please note that currently we have three airports that have “Warsaw” in their name:

  • Warsaw Chopin Airport – located within the city borders, approx. 8 km from the city centre
  • Mazovia-Warsaw Airport Modlin – located outside the city, approx. 40 km from the city centre,
  • Warsaw-Radom Airport - located far from the city, over 100 km from the city centre,

 

Please bear it in mind while booking your flights, because it takes much more time to get to city centre from the Modlin or Radom airport than from the Chopin airport.

 

We will be looking forward to meeting you in Warsaw.
