From the 1 June, 2012, PKP Intercity will increase the number of Twoje Linie Kolejowe (TLK) trains which are under full seat reservation to additional 68 trains. Most of them are night and long distance connections. Altogether, passengers of 82 TLK trains buying a seat will have a guaranteed seat.

From the 1 June, 2012, PKP Intercity will increase the number of Twoje Linie Kolejowe (TLK) trains which are under full seat reservation to additional 68 trains. Most of them are night and long distance connections. Altogether, passengers of 82 TLK  trains buying a seat will have a guaranteed seat.
After piloting the full reservation, which took place at the turn of 2011/2012 in eight TLK trains, the Board of PKP Intercity decided to preserved the reservation and extend it in other trains. “We conduct a range of activities aimed at improving the standards of travelling in our trains - in recent months we have increased significantly  the number of cars, it is possible to see the estimated turnout on our website, and by extending compulsory reservation in the second class in additional trains every passenger who chooses such train will have an assigned seat  ” – underlines Małgorzata Sitkowska, the Spokesperson for PKP Intercity. 
Full train reservation allows PKP Intercity for better management of its rolling stock resources in situations of increased demand, e.g. during holiday trips, by continuously monitoring the turnout in the trains, the carrier can strengthen the trains with additional cars. It is worth noticing that full, compulsory seat reservation will apply in 54 trains provided by PKP Intercity for travel to matches and returns during the UEFA European Football Championship. 
Tickets with seats in TLK trains under full seat reservation are available in a ticket office and internet pre-sale 30 days before the journey. If all available seats are sold out, only upon the passenger's request, the cashier may issue a ticket along with the statement that there are no seats left. The cost of a seat in class 1 and 2 in the TLK trains is PLN 5. Compulsory seat reservation applies in all categories of Express (Ex) and Express InterCity (EIC) trains, and since the 1st of June 2011 also in the first class of TLK trains.
In TLK trains under full seat reservation people with long-term tickets or network tickets may travel without a seat, taking a free seat until the passenger with reservation appears. If they want to have guaranteed seat they should purchase a seat earlier.
From April PKP Intercity offers the passengers travelling to Trójmiasto (Tricity) by Neptun, Norwid or Kaszub trains tickets cheaper up to 48%. The carrier, due to ongoing repairs, decided to change the category of the trains operating to/from Tricity on this route from Express and Express InterCity to Twoje Linie Kolejowe (TLK). Although the ticket price will be much lower, these trains will still consist of the first-class cars. All trains will require full seat reservations and the cost of a seat instead of PLN 16 or PLN 12.50 will be PLN 5. In Neptun, Kaszub and Norwid trains statutory discounts and TLK promotions will apply.  
More information on compulsory seat reservation and timetable is available on www.intercity.pl website and at information points. People who do not have access to internet may obtain information dialing the number of Infolinia Kolejowa Intercity (Intercity Call Center).
