Life / Polish Train Travel - Scary? [101]

The IC trains are a bit more expensive and they don't stop between Warsaw and Gdańsk.

Jova - Thanks for all the info! Would both of them be the more modern trains?

Yeah... way too expensive and way too slow :(

Jova,

What was the 1st vs. 2nd class like on this train? I though EX was the express train _ i do not believe there are any stops in between.

Life / Shopping for Polish brands/labels [8]

Thank you for the reply - I was actually looking for an Outlet Mall or Factory Mall I think they may be called

Henderson is a loungewear/underwear brand owned by the same company as CROPP and RESERVED

Are there any good outlet malls/stores in Poland that have some of the Polish brand stores (Reserved, CROPP, etc.)

Also does anyone know where I can find the Henderson label clothes?

Any other clothing/shopping suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Travel / Purchasing train tickets via the internet [5]

LOL I hear you with that - Took the TLK train from Wroclaw to Krakow last year in 1st and it was OK - On some trains it only seems to be a couple dollars more.

Travel / Purchasing train tickets via the internet [5]

I am taking two trips - One is from Warsaw to Sopot (on EuroCity) and Sopot to Poznan on (PDS?) train - I am assuming that it is worth it get 1st class on the Sopot to Poznan no?

Any chance there is a place on-line to see pictures of the trains?

Travel / Purchasing train tickets via the internet [5]

Has anyone previous done this and used the printed ticket on-board?

I notice the bilet.intercity.pl site now allows you to purchase tickets using a credit card and print your ticket - This would be a great convience to complete this before I head over there this summer.

Also what are everyone opinions on 1st vs. 2nd on the train lines?

Travel / Central / Eastern Europe Travel Plans 08 [6]

I actually loved Warsaw when I went last year and really enjoyed the nightlife and some of the shopping. While we did also really enjoyed Warsaw we were a little turned off by the throngs of tourists.

Travel / Central / Eastern Europe Travel Plans 08 [6]

So after visiting PL last summer I cannot wait to stop by again! I was thinking about the following itinerary this summer and was wondering if anyone could give some suggestions or recommendations.

Fly from NYC to Tallinn, Estonia (2-3 nights)
Bus from Tallinn to Riga (2-3 Nights)
Bus from Riga to Vilnius (2 Nights)
Vilnius to Warsaw (3 Nights) (Not sure the best way to do this - I see the bus is almost 9 hours which is too long for me!)

Warsaw to Prague (3-4 Nights)
Prague to NYC

I would like to visit Gdansk/Tri-City but not sure how to fit that in on this trip unless there is an efficient way to get from Vilnius to Gdansk

I am still open with my planning though - I have also considered flying from Vilnius to Prague and then Prague to Warsaw and Warsaw to NYC. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Life / Gay scene good in Poland? [66]

There is def. a scene in Poland. It may not be Chelsea or West Hollywood but it is still there. Both Krakow and Warsaw both have some good nightlife choices and I believe you would have a blast in either place.

USA, Canada / Trying to get my Polish nanny married off -- best clubs in Chicago? [69]

Take my word for it -- she is classically pretty. Very tall, too, about 5 foot 11. She's too ladylike to post on a website.

Anyway I'll marry her if I get PL Citizenship in exchange for her US one
