Warsaw Frederic Chopin Airport Reviews
Newest Review: ... looks pretty cool and not something that you see in every airport. I have used the check in desks once at Warsaw Chopin Airport. I found the queue to be of a medium size and once the check in actually opened the queue moved faster than I thought. When I was called up to the desk the lady there was Polish, however when she saw I was English from my documents she spoke to me in very clear English and was very polite and told me to have a pleasant trip. With the check in complete I headed towards the security area to proceed to the departure lounge. Each time I have been through security at Warsaw Chopin Airport there has never been too ... more

Warsaw Chopin Airport. During my many recent trips to Poland's capital city Warsaw I have had many encounters with the city's airport; Warsaw Chopin Airport including simply passing through, tearful see you soons and even a few hours sleeping in a rather uncomfortable red plastic chair! Ok, this feels like I will be writing the review backwards as I will first arrive at the airport by plane and tell you about leaving the airport. The first time I arrived at Warsaw Chopin Airport was in April 2011 on a Wizz Air flight. After the flight landed we were taken by bus to the terminal building. The bus was one of the bendy bus ones and although ... Read the complete review

Warsaw has just one airport, but it is pretty big and very efficient. They have three terminals to split up the flights into intercontinential and Europe, Poland and then cheap flights.

This is one of the only airports where I have seen defibralators and medical service stations. While I am unlikely to have a heart attack, it is good to know that if I did, I would be safe. The staff are very vigilant with security checks pulling things out ... Read the complete review

The airport is easy to get to by taxi or public transport. It is expanding quickly and serving more destinations every year. The main terminal building for LOT airlines is showing signs of old age and is being renovated. There is a really good shop there that sells aircraft memorabilia ideal for the plane spotter yes I am one. The usual process of check in passport and control is easily negotiated though I felt a lot of people did not understand baggage allowances . The shops as you pass securirt are small and have a limited range. The restaurant was small and busy and the food was ok and reasonably priced do not expect a banquet. To board the plane you had to ... Read the complete review

Living in Warsaw and being a regular traveller, I've spent a fair amount of time at Frederic Chopin Airport in Warsaw (formerly known as Okecie). History --------- Frederic Chopin Airport more commonly referred to as Okecie, has a relatively intersting history, it was used in 1933 to cope with the increase of traffic that was too great for the Pole Mokotowskie Aerodrome (Pole Mokotowskie is now a pleasant park with a fountain, several bars and the National Library). Okecie airport was the home of many a battle between the Polish resistance and the invading Germans during WW2 and this left it in a right old mess. LOT Airlines began flying from it ...
