Airports in Poland range from large international hubs (especially around Warsaw) to regional airports that connect major cities to Europe. To keep information accurate and avoid unofficial “mirror” pages, this guide focuses on verified sources—starting with the Polish Civil Aviation Authority (ULC), which publishes the official Civil Airports Register.
Official source first: Poland’s Civil Airports Register (ULC)
If you want the most reliable “ground truth” for airports in Poland, use ULC’s Rejestr Lotnisk Cywilnych (Civil Airports Register). ULC publishes it as an official document and updates it periodically; the page shows an update dated 29 December 2025 with a register list “as of 22 December 2025.”
Why this matters:
- It helps verify the official name of an airport and its status as a registered civil airport in Poland.
- It’s the best way to avoid relying on travel blogs or scraped directories when you’re building a serious reference page for warsaw.red.

How to verify an “official airport site” in Poland
If you see multiple websites for the same airport, use this simple checklist:
- Check the ULC register to confirm the airport is officially registered (and to match the official name).
- Look for the airport operator’s legal identity/contact details (many official sites show company details, address, or corporate information). Example: Wrocław Airport shows company and registration info on its official pages.
- Prefer the airport’s own domain over ticket-seller pages and directories (which may include outdated info).
