Traveling by rail is speed and convenience, and in the case of seniors also safety and saving. A lot of elderly people prefer to leave a car in the yard and take advantage of the discount offered by the Polish State Railways. It allows you to reduce the ticket price by as much as 30 percent. It is available to both Poles and travelers from abroad who have over the age of 60.
Ticket for a senior. Intercity has prepared an interesting offer
A discount is due on both Intercity trains and more expensive compositions: Express Intercity and Pendolino. Lowering the ticket cost even by about PLN 100. It can be used not only in the second grade, but also in the first class wagons. There is more leg space, more comfortable seats, and the number of places in the compartment is 4-6.
Passengers can also count on additional amenities, e.g. adjustable headrests and armrests. Some compositions also include electrical outlets with each seat. In the case of Pendolino, travelers can also receive one free meal from the card, free coffee and water.
Who is entitled to a ticket for the Senior PKP? Age is the only condition
For comparison, in the second class, standard seats are slightly less comfortable, and there are 6-8 places in the range. A cheap ticket for a senior is a permanent discount that every passenger is entitled to 60 years old. To confirm the entitlement to the offer, you need to show the conductor a document with a photo confirming identity and age, e.g. an ID card. Such a privilege, however, is not available to pensioners who are under 60. They have the right to two journeys per year with a relief of 37 percent, but in the second grade of all categories of PKP Intercity trains in national communication. It should also be remembered that the journey “and back” is treated as two separate.
