British Airways has frequent flights to Krakow. Flights land at John Paul II International Airport in Krakow-Balice, seven miles west of central Krakow. After flights, stretch your legs with a stroll around Krakow's towering churches and cobbled streets in Krakow's Old Town, Wawel and Kazimierz districts. Then do some post-flight relaxing with a glass of herb-flavoured Żubrówka vodka and apple juice in one of Krakow's jazz cellar bars.
To reach central Krakow, take an official 9191 taxi after your flights land. Or walk from the airport to its train station and enjoy the 15-minute train journey into Krakow. If you have a lot of baggage and don't want to walk from the airport to the station, there is also a free shuttle-bus service. For a cheaper way of getting into Krakow, take the longer bus 192 route into central Krakow.
After flights lands in Krakow you'll soon realise that walking is the best way to explore the city. Krakow's medieval Old Town cobbled streets lead you to Wawel Castle's magnificent royal history. Visit the different venues of the Krakow Museum of History, including Krakow's 15th-century red brick Old Synagogue to understand the troubled history of the Jewish community in Krakow. You'll be lured into Krakow's former Jewish quarter, Kazimierz, for its eccentric bars, restaurants and quaint antique shops. Browse Krakow's 15th-century Sukiennice cloth hall on Krakow's main square for lace and amber souvenirs before return flights from Krakow.
