Do not forget that CE Europe has been as 'European' as any other country westwards with very rich and colourful history and with as much beautiful historical places as anywhere else (great castles, churches, old towns and so on). It's only due to the communist regime after WWII that many of these places have been left out of tourists' sights. Now, everywhere you land the distance to tourist attractions will be very short. Unfortunately, in many cases you'll have to find those attractions yourself. Even Ryanair's O'Leary have made unacceptable mistake by saying 'Take Gdansk. Who wants to go to Gdansk? There ain't a lot there after you've seen the shipyard wall.' Complete misunderstandig, only an ignorant can say something like that about a once famous medieval town with well-preserved old centre that is on the United Nations’ protected list. Its St Mary’s Church is the biggest Gothic structure in Europe and in the vincinity of Gdansk you have one of worlds most famous and biggest knight castles (Malbork). Try this or go to Torun, Krakow with Wawel castle, gorgeous Wieliczka salt mine, Tatry mountains and frightening Auschwitz nearby. Or go to Slovakia's Carpathian mountains, to any of hungarian towns or puszta or try Slovenian Alps. Go to Czechia - to Český Krumlov or Trebic, if not to Prague. The list could be much, much longer.
I know that they planned on doing so, but I'm not sure if they actually ever did.
I know Air Polonia used to fly this route, though.
Indeed, they were planning on starting this route 3 times/week.
But they cancelled their plans a short time before the first flight.
For me They wouldn't have to add CRL- Katowice, 'cause the travelling for me is as long as if i would land in Warsaw.
What they CAN do for me is add some flights to Warsaw...
6 days a week and maybe 2 flights/day. But when i check out the number of passengers on my last CRL-WAW flight (+- 40 people) i see no reason to do that.
