I have booked a King Club Room (on corporate rate about 40€ cheaper) and my booking has not changed yet. Let's see what happens on arrival, especially as it's my birthday

I think this is the 1st time 3 FT RAs are bumping with eachother
!
Good luck to both of you to score a great upgrade, the lounge is very quiet
PS:! The lounge is closed from 6 PM to 8 PM, when the Hors d ouevres begins, so ask for a voucher to eat a delicious dinner with red wine at +One Bar.

Got upgraded from King Club Room (Corporate Rate) to a wonderfull Junior Suite on the 38 floor with very good views.
But this is a full suite, 2 seprate good sized rooms (plus 1 full bathroom and also one WC) with a full mini bar (alcohol in it).
However no RA stuff (letter/water/etc.), maybe that show ups later.
Do RA's have a secret handshake we can use?

Yes, noticed this the other day and figure I will book the Limo back to the airport on Sunday afternoon. (Though I should really do the personal trainer thing...)

This is crazy, so many RAs in one hotel! Shareholder, the limo is cheaper from Hotel to Airport and more expensive vice-versa.

No, I'm not there (here?) until the 25th. Will actually arrive in Warsaw on the 23rd but using points down the street at the HI, 10K per night because the best paid rate is E180 a night! I'll walk over to the IC which is why I'll use the free car back to the airport on Sunday afternoon. Will cab it to the HI Thursday afternoon, or maybe buy some tickets at the news kiosk and take the bus into the city.
Hope you guys had a rendezvous in the Club lounge.

Could you please do a favour and email RA customer service to determine validity of their claim? Or advise when you asked and I will email both hotel and RA cs. (Of course, in Warsaw the cost of a cab to the airport is only a few Euros, hardly a bit amount.)

But when it is still on the Internet, the hotel can´t say, that the promotion is not longer valid.

The staff told me, that they know, about the cultural free transfer. But they never heard about the offer to the free airport transfer (one-way) and the personal trainer.

And when you take the bus 175, which goes from Warsaw Central Station (5 minutes walk from the hotel) direct to the airport, this will costs 2,40 PLN (about 0,70 EUR).
