    This is what i get today from my friend in Prague..

    ''I exchanged few mails with them. Good they reply quickly. But sometimes they do not answer the question properly.

     

    Finally I have the result for you. But it is not confirmation :-(

     

    The timetable is going to be changed on 10/6 so they cannot guarantee it will stay as it is. When I asked them if the train EC115 is planned for 2/7 they replied that it is in the draft but the departure time and price may change. They cannot say anything concrete now ''

    Needless to say, the real winners in this game are those who booked that nonstop Ryanair flight when the price was reasonable

    What other options are there though? Besides taking a bus this is pretty much our only option right?

    Waiting until June 10 kind of sucks since I'll already be in Europe by then for the Amsterdam shows. But the train is still my preferred mode of transportation in this case.

    There is nothing to worry about. One way or another we will get to Krakow. Worst case scenario is that the timetable won't be the best but I wouldn't worry. Nothing to worry about when you are travelling from one PJ show to another!  =)

    Anyone else interested in booking a flight at 6:00am on the 4th going to Berlin? 1 stop in Munich and we get into Berlin at 9:00am. If you book a return to Krakow it is much cheaper atm. It is booked directly with Lufthansa so no 3rd parties to worry about if something happens to the flight. I know it is not for everyone being that early but let me know as I am pretty sure I am going to go ahead with it if I can find one more crazy person. It is 115 Euro right now.

    Here's my options in order:

    1) wait to buy a direct day train ticket
    2) over night train ticket

    If none of those pan out, I may

    3) rent private transportation (maybe the 8 seater and get 6 others to split)
    4) or rent my own van.  I'd go this route but with the drop off fee it's cheaper to just go the private transportation route.

    we've been planning for months to take the overnight train that leaves the 2nd at 10sh and arrives at 6am on the 3rd (prague to krakow) - they say that might be changing? haha - time will tell i guess, i figure tomorrow (60 days out), we will be allowed to purchase 1st class tickets on that overnight train... hopefully?

    I’m traveling solo for the whole Prague-Krakow-Berlin leg of the tour and am also trying to figure out travel logistics (and looking for travel buddies). Would anyone be interested in splitting costs for a rental car? I have the option to fly into Berlin on June 29 instead of Prague, and could do a 5 day rental where I drive from Berlin to Prague on June 30, then drive from Prague to Krakow early-ish the morning of July 2, and then drive from Krakow to Berlin early-ish the morning of July 4. This would avoid the one-way drop off fee since I was already planning to fly out of Berlin on July 6. The total cost of the rental (a mid-size car) would be about $250 USD, plus gas. I’m terrible at estimating the cost of gas in Europe, but I think this would be fairly inexpensive spilt between 3 or 4 people.

    Ya it is but it is annoyingly not updating for the summer schedule. How many are you traveling with? I am going solo and would be nice to get together with some other forum members. I am planning on going right after the show back into Prague. Getting a look at the city/bridge under the lights then heading west to the bus stop. 

    Also that night train looks great but I really want to have the day before to explore Krakow so I will not feel rushed on the day of the show.
