    A little help please- can any locals give a rough estimate on how much it'd cost to take the train from Katowice to Krakow, then to catch a taxi from Krakow station to the airport there? We won't be staying, or paying for much more than maybe a bottle of water and a sandwich- we'll just be crashing at the airport overnight to catch some Zs there before we fly out in the morning.

    With Poland being such a short stop, it'd be pointless to change too much of our Euro into Zlotys.

    and we're staying in a hostel (Corner Hostel) in krakow for only PLZ 35 each (I presume you're taking the SkyEurope to Venice like us)

    Nah, I'm skipping Venice and Austria, to spend some solo time in Paris before I catch up with you guys back in London.

    i was just wondering who is getting the train from krakow to katowice and then back again after the gig on the 13th?? would anybody like to meet up and travel together as i find the whole idea quite daunting at that time of night coming back and feel the more the merrier is the best way to travel.

    Don't know about the trip out, but I anticipate half the damn stadium is going to be packing onto them late trains, especially the 1am Krakow service.

    Well surely if you're Thierry Henry you can just hire a private jet or something for us all and take us there???? But seriously, after that shit joke/comment, it would be cool if we could sort out some kinda meet up and stuff.

    Honestly, I heard theres not much going on in Katowice.
    I think its an industrial town. You should have booked Krakow instead!!

    I'll be staying at Greg and Tom hostel2 in Krakow on the 12th. Looking at the timetables of trains i think i'll take the 12:10 on the 13th to Katowice.
    Then get the 1am back to Krakow and get a taxi to the airport for my 10am flight back to Glasgow.

    After the concert we have to get back to Katowice Airport for an early flight back home. Does anyone has some information about transport at night from the stadion to the airport (taxi, bus, others...)?

    So when I booked hotell the cheapest one were for 2 people so I got a 2 bed rum but it´s only me, so if anybody need a place to crash just let me know. The cost is 68 euro and this will be split in 2, so 34 each, incl.breakfast. The hotell is 2 km south from katowice train station.
