Cheap flights from Istanbul to Katowice

In Katowice, you can buy tickets at any kiosk or from bright yellow vending machines. Make sure to validate your ticket after entering a bus or a tram. Otherwise, you risk paying a fine of about €20! Note that you can also buy a ticket online via one of the mobile applications. In that case, it is valid from the moment of purchase.

Some foreigners may wonder about the Polish pedestrians' discipline, who choose designated areas to cross streets. Jaywalking is illegal in Poland and is punished by a fine. However, even more important is that the drivers don’t expect you to run across the street wherever you like. Walking a dozen of meters to the nearest crossing or waiting an extra minute for the traffic lights to change is a small price to pay for your safety.

Thanks to recent infrastructure improvements, Katowice has become a bike-friendly city. Its parks (the Silesia Park, the Valley of Three Ponds, etc.) offer countless roads for exploration on a two-wheeled transport. The city-organised bike rental system has more than 600 vehicles in dozens of stations. Just install the app, pay two euro for registering — and a three-hour ride will cost you less than one euro.
