Single passenger terminal (opened 2012 for UEFA Euro). One runway 11/29, 2,503 × 45 m (concrete-asphalt); field elevation about 404 ft / 123 m. Operator: Port Lotniczy Wrocław S.A. - >- 4,907,527 passengers in calendar 2025 (airport / Pasazer.com / city of Wrocław reporting the same total; +9.7% vs 2024’s 4,473,945 on the airport annual series) despite a full operational pause roughly 26 Oct–4 Dec 2025 for runway/taxiway and apron works (November 2025 recorded as 0 on the airport monthly table). August 2025 was the peak month (~643,900). - >- No on-airport rail. Day bus 106 runs about every 15 minutes to Wrocław Główny / Dworcowa (~40–50 minutes in traffic). Day bus 129 also serves the airport; night coverage is line 206. Standard MPK / UrbanCard city tickets apply — no airport surcharge (60-minute ticket PLN 5.20 normal / PLN 2.60 reduced on published UrbanCard / city tariff pages). - >- Airline mix is Ryanair- and Wizz Air-heavy leisure/LCC plus LOT, Lufthansa / Eurowings / SWISS, KLM, and seasonal charters. UK, Italy and Spain were the top outbound markets in the 2025 traffic reports. - >- Classic EU liquids rules still apply at security (≤100 ml containers in one clear 1-litre bag; large electronics out). Paid Fast Track: PLN 30 online / PLN 40 at the desk (airport Executive Lounge & Fast Track page). Executive Lounge airside after security — walk-up/day entry PLN 149 (EUR 35) at the desk or PLN 139 online; Priority Pass, LoungeKey and Dragon Pass accepted subject to space. - >- Free #PijKranówkę drinking-water points (airport + MPWiK): landside by the stairs to the chapel; Schengen departures near gates 5–6; arrivals near the baggage belt. Free Wi-Fi is available in the terminal. Kiss & Fly: first 10 minutes free (up to three entries per calendar day), then PLN 20 to 20 minutes and PLN 10 per further 10 minutes (airport online parking price list). bentoTips: - label: Timing title: Budget 2 hours — Ryanair/Wizz bag-drop is the choke point detail: >- Wrocław is a compact single-terminal field, but morning and late-afternoon LCC banks still stack at check-in and security. Airport paid Fast Track is PLN 30 if you buy online at rezerwacja.airport.wroclaw.pl (PLN 40 at the desk, card-only at the lane). Classic 100 ml liquids and laptop-out rules still apply — empty refill bottles before the lane, then use the free #PijKranówkę taps airside. Non-Schengen flights add passport control after security. summary: >- Arrive ~2 hours early for LCC peaks; Fast Track is PLN 30 online / PLN 40 at the desk. category: timing - label: Terminal title: One terminal — Schengen vs non-Schengen after security detail: >- Check-in, security and reclaim sit in one modern terminal. After screening the flow splits toward Schengen gates and non-Schengen passport control. The Executive Lounge sits airside near gates 9–10 (1st floor). Priority Pass notes that non-Schengen passengers using the lounge may need to re-clear security when returning to their gate — leave early. Do not confuse WRO with Poznań (POZ) or the old Strachowice general-aviation / military fringe — follow passenger-terminal signs. summary: >- Single terminal; lounge is airside by gates 9–10 — non-Schengen travellers should leave a buffer. category: terminal - label: Food title: Eat landside or use the lounge — airside is limited detail: >- Landside has more everyday options (including a 24/7 Nano Żabka on the airport terminal map). Airside food is thinner and priced like every regional European LCC hub. Executive Lounge paid/ Priority Pass entry includes warm dishes, snacks, cakes and coffee on the airport page — a better value than buying a full meal airside if you already hold a pass. Bring an empty bottle for the free water points. summary: >- Prefer landside food or the Executive Lounge; free water taps beat PLN 10 bottles. category: food - label: Status title: 2025 works closed the field for ~40 days — watch NOTAMs detail: >- The biggest operational story of 2025 was the ~40-day full closure (late October through early December) for runway, taxiway and apron modernisation under a CEF-backed programme. Further airside works may still constrain stands or taxi routes into 2026 — check the airport news feed and your airline app the day before travel. Do not assume a “quiet” November trough: 2025’s November was simply zero because nothing flew. summary: >- Confirm live ops after the 2025 runway rebuild; airline apps beat stale third-party blogs. category: status lounges: - name: Executive Lounge zone: Airside (near gates 9–10) hours: >- Airport page currently markets 24/7 opening (subject to change) and also describes access around departures; Priority Pass lists 04:30–21:00 daily, closed 25 Dec 2026, max stay 2 hours. access: - Online day entry PLN 139 / desk PLN 149 (EUR 35) per the airport page - Priority Pass - LoungeKey - Dragon Pass - Diners Club (listed) - >- Selected airline status / business-class rules (often with a PLN 79 or EUR top-up — check the airline-specific matrix on the airport lounge page) bestFor: - Priority Pass holders - Early LCC departures when landside cafés are thin - Light work before boarding summary: >- The only public passenger lounge. Solid Priority Pass / LoungeKey / Dragon Pass option with food and drinks; watch the PP 2-hour cap and the non-Schengen re-security note. Paid walk-up is PLN 139–149 — fine if you need a seat and a meal, skippable if you only want a coffee. verdict: worth-it terminal: Main Terminal amenities: - Wi-Fi - Hot and cold snacks - Soft drinks and alcohol - Work tables - Flight information - Non-Schengen fast-track to passport control (airport-stated) waterOptions: - kind: refill name: '#PijKranówkę free drinking point (Schengen departures)' zone: airside price: Free summary: >- Airport + MPWiK free tap-water point marked #PijKranówkę.
