#RegioJet officially announced their Polish open access network, including #CrossBorderRail, set to launch on #RailwayNewYear in December, with full service from April 2026. Routes:
Kraków-Warsaw-Gdynia
Warsaw-Poznań
Warsaw-Ostrava-Prague
Warsaw-Ostrava-Vienna

Tickets available on RJ's website and app, opening ticket desks in Kraków, Poznań and Warsaw in December.

Fair bit of boasting, especially about their role as an employer (still intensively looking, I guess), and also an admission: "As the offer until December 2025 is pure marketing, our travel times will be a bit longer (around 30 minutes) and there will be only one pair of our connections. That's why we will be offering tickets **at very low prices**. The catering prices are final, however."

@HaTetsu Any info about bicycles? I played around briefly on the booking website and didn't see how to add them, but perhaps I missed something?

@cycling_on_rails @jon No info, but I wouldn't expect these to be particularly different from RJ trains in Czechia - which is to say, no bicycles :(

@HaTetsu @jon After further checking, the "low cost" class mentions "rowery ZA DARMO" i.e. bicycles FOR FREE: https://regiojet.pl/uslugi/obsluga-w-pociagu/low-cost

The fine print says you have to book in advance (no idea where, hope they'll sort this out in the trial phase) and the bicycle spots are at the end of the carriage. #CyclingOnRails #RowerWPociągu
