40–50 minutes from GDN to Wrzeszcz if you time Bus 110 right
ZTM Bus 110 runs between Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport and Gdańsk Wrzeszcz, useful if your hotel or Airbnb sits near that corridor instead of the main Gdańsk Główny area. Guides put the ride at about 40–50 minutes in normal traffic, and locals flag it as the budget move when a taxi into town can hit 70–90 PLN. This is a standard city bus, not an airport express.
The 110 stops outside T2 arrivals at GDN; look for the marked ZTM bus stands a short walk from the terminal exit. Daytime headways run roughly every 20–30 minutes according to the ZTM timetable, so missing one doesn’t wreck the day but can matter if you land late. It runs through residential districts before reaching Gdańsk Wrzeszcz, which is why the map distance looks short but the clock says otherwise.
A single ZTM ticket in Gdańsk sits around 4–5 PLN for a normal city fare, which is what you use on Bus 110. Travellers on TripAdvisor call this “cheap but slower than the train” when they connect at Wrzeszcz to SKM for Sopot. Remember to validate your paper ticket immediately after boarding in the yellow machine near the doors.
Step-by-step: using ZTM Bus 110 from the airport
- 1. Exit T2 arrivals and follow the bus pictograms; the 110 stop is in the main bus zone in front of the terminal, a 2–3 minute walk.
- 2. Buy a ZTM ticket from the airport ticket machine in the public area or at the machine by the stop if it is working; both usually accept cards, which helps if you land with zero PLN.
- 3. Check the front display on the bus for “110” and “Wrzeszcz,” since several ZTM lines serve the airport stands.
- 4. Validate your ticket as soon as you board in the onboard validator; inspectors in Gdańsk do check, and the fine is far more than 5 PLN.
- 5. Ride to Gdańsk Wrzeszcz, watching stop names on the interior display; plan for extra dwell time at residential stops in rush hour.
- 6. At Wrzeszcz, transfer to SKM trains if you’re heading on to Sopot or Gdynia, or walk/tram to nearby hotels and apartments within 5–15 minutes.
What regulars do and watch-outs
Locals on Reddit flatly say they skip Bus 110 in peak weekday hours and use PKM or SKM instead, because afternoon traffic jams can blow past the expected 40–50 minutes and make the schedule feel useless. Forum posts also mention that figuring out which ZTM ticket to buy after landing is confusing if your card fails at the machine or you assumed contactless on board; have a backup plan like small cash or a second card.
Practical tip: if your flight lands around local rush hour, check the PKM train time into Wrzeszcz first; if the train is within 15 minutes, it usually beats 110 once road traffic thickens.
