Cheap Pendolino for the long weekend. Tickets are available for up to half price.

PKP (Polish State Railways) has good news for passengers. This long weekend, they will be able to travel on Pendolino trains at significantly lower prices than usual. Travelers, however, should book quickly, as tickets available in the promotional pool may sell out quickly. Tickets are up to half the price. As part of the offer, Poles will be able to travel by high-speed train to destinations including the Tricity, Krakow, Katowice, Wrocław, and Szczecin.

Everyone was waiting for such a PKP promotion

PKP Intercity has prepared some truly impressive promotions for its customers for the long weekend. If you're planning a trip from August 14th to 18th, you can now purchase tickets at up to half the price. This promotion applies only to EIC and EIP trains, meaning Express Intercity and Express Intercity Premium (Pendolino). This translates to significant savings for travelers who typically spend hundreds of zlotys on a seat on high-speed trains.

"This offer is aimed at those who haven't had time to purchase tickets for other journeys offered by PKP Intercity," the carrier stated in a statement. Despite the increased number of seats and carriages for the August holiday, not everyone managed to book tickets for cheaper trains in time.

Where can we get to by Pendolino?

However, the Pendolino's service range is limited. Poland's most modern trains won't take you to Masuria or Zakopane, for example (an EIC train is available from Warsaw to the capital of the Polish Tatra Mountains).

Pendolino trains operate on routes between major cities. The schedule includes routes to Warsaw, Krakow, Poznań, the Tricity area, Katowice, and Wrocław, and recently also to Szczecin and Świnoujście.
