Location

Warsaw Chopin Airport railway station (Polish: Warszawa Lotnisko Chopina) is the railway station of the Warsaw Chopin Airport in Warsaw, Poland.

The station was built as part of a new Terminal 2 in 2008 but remained out of service until the rail link was completed in 2012.[1] The cost of the 2 km (1.2 mi) link to Warszawa Służewiec was 230 million złoty. The station fully opened for service on 1 June 2012, when Szybka Kolej Miejska launched service to Sulejówek Miłosna and Legionowo. Koleje Mazowieckie will also feature passenger service in the near future to Modlin, as a connection to the Warsaw-Modlin Mazovia Airport soon.[2] The journey to central Warsaw takes slightly over 20 minutes.
