Hello, We are traveling to Gdansk in June, 2012 for the European Cup. We are lying out on a very early flight (6:00) and we are wondering how early we should arrive at the airport. Wizz Air requires you to check in no later than 40 minutes before the flight, but I am not sure how long security will take. We will be in Gdansk for 3 days so any suggestions of restaurants, sights, are really appreciated. Thanks.

Hello everyone, I will be traveling to Gdansk in May 2012. I do however have a question regarding the Gdansk - Bialystok ferry. From what I gather, it appears it only runs on Saturday's, and with my schedule it will be difficult to get to... However, they do mention the possibility of having a ferry during the week. Does anyone have any information regarding the mid-week cruise? I have attempted to contact them, but they appear closed for the winter. Thanks for your help!

Hello, I am going to travel from Warsaw to Gdansk in November. I wanted to buy online tickets in advance here pksbilety.pl/search/routeinf... But when getting to the payment step I was asked to enter a Pesel number which obviously I don't have. So in this case the question is - will I be able to buy these tickets one day before the trip in a ticket office (when I am already in Poland)?

Hi! I'm gonna stay for 4 days in Gdansk and I'm not sure if it's too much time to be in this city. So, i would like to know if there's something worth to see around Gdansk for 1 day-trip by public transportation (just for not to get stuck in Gdansk). thanks.

I am planning to visit Poland during the UEFA Euro 2012 and Warsaw seems to be a must-see (and also a necessity due to flight connections), but I wonder, which second host city I should visit... I did some online research and Gdansk as well as Wroclaw are offering a lot. Which of these cities you'd recommend? I've to add, that I am also intrested in "classical" sights (like buildings and monuments) and in history... Additionally party matters, but I suppose, that during the EURO there won't be huge differences between the host cities...

Hi all, I would like to rent an apartment for our 4d/3n stay at Gdansk end of September. The website on which I would like to book is www.all-gdansk-apartments.eu. Would anybody on VT have experience with them ? Or would you have another suggestion ? Thanks a lot, Bart W.

Hello, I am a VT member and am visiting Gdansk arriving there by plane on August 27th. Although not my first visit to Poland it is my first to the Baltic coast. I have already read Askla's guide and so will need to take the 210 bus from the airport. Is it clear where the bus stop is? I was rather lost when I arrived into Warsaw during my last trip to Krakow (Euromeet 2010). Can I buy a ticket at the airport? At the moment am trying to arrange a programme and have a good idea of what I want to see, including the main town, anything associated with the Solidarity movement and to spend some time around the beach and also hoping to meet people and to enjoy good food and drink in some bars cafes and restaurants. Do you know of any organised walking tours? Any local recommendations are gratefully appreciated. thank you (dziekuje) I then will be moving onto Poznan where I will have some time after lunch and early evening as I have a train to catch at 21.30. I will soon be booking a hostel to spend three nights and wondered if anyone has a recommendation please.

Hi! My mom is coming by bus to Gdansk Bus station (I assume, that´s the one called PKS, please,, correct me if I´m wrong) and needs to get to Ferry-terminal Polferries to get a boat to Sweden (Nynäshamn). She doesn´t speak any Polish or English, so I´m trying to find the information how she can get there in advance. It should be som easy way to get between those two points, som bus or tram perhaps. Otherwise she´ll get a taxi, but then I would also appreciate if someone can say how that ferry-terminal is called in Polish. Thanks in advance for any help! /Koshka_ru

Hi all, I was just hoping someone could help me regarding whether or not it is possible to go by any other way than bus via Warsaw if you wish to go overland from Vilnius to Gdansk. Ideally would love to go by train but I can't seem to find anything. Thanks, jimbolta

Please suggest a cool & hip venue. Thank you.

Hi Sweet fellow travellers, I will forever remember how I ended up becoming a member here... it was whilst researching for my brother's stag! That was in Krakow. Now, that very brother is going to Gdansk in a big posse to have a blast in the form of celebrating his cousin's stag!! So, I'll be extremely grateful for tips on really cool clubs. Places with good service, some local quirk & culture, yet eclectic music catering for an international crowd. Thanks a million. I'm counting on you folks. Darshan

Does anyone have any suggestions about travelling from Gdansk to Kaliningrad? I checked the bus service, but that route doesn't operate on the day I need to travel (Wednesdays). There is a train but it gives me 6 minutes to transfer to my next train in Kaliningrad. I checked the ferry, but they no longer operate that route. I tried LOT but it's not 'cheap'. Aeroflot don't do that route. Wizz don't do that route. Is there perhaps a shared taxi or car type of operation? Perhaps there's an overnight bus service I haven't found? I'm happy to rough it. Happy days! Stewart

Hi Everyone We're thinking of spending a week or two in Gdansk at the start of June, but when we visit Eastern Europe we tend to stay in one place for a few days and then move on to a nearby city or town for a few days. We were considering Gdynia for a couple of days, and maybe Sopot, but am unsure whether these are best done as day trips, or if we are better to stop over? Also, if anyone has any recommendations for cheap hotels then please let us know. Location and cleanliness are the main things (happy to stop in hostels if you can book private double rooms with ensuite;) Thanks in advance Mark
