The ticket price for IC depends primarily on the time of purchase and the selected fare, not on the train’s name itself. Among passengers departing from Warszawa Wschodnia, the cheapest tickets are in the IC Intercity category and the most expensive are for Pendolino, where the difference reaches several times the basic fare. From the starting station, the largest proportion of purchases is made 1–3 days before departure, while sales peak in August, so it is better to buy a ticket earlier for a summer trip.
