Jet2.com customers flying to Krakow are set to enjoy an even higher level of service after Krakow Airport officially opened the first part of its new passenger terminal building, as well as a new airport train station with a direct connection to the city centre. The work forms part of a major investment project concerning the extension and modernisation of the airport that will be capable of serving 8 million passengers annually.
Jan Pamuła, Krakow Airport President, said: “We can easily say that we have built a new airport…passengers are provided with a much higher level of service and comfortable conditions.”
