PKP: Pendolino trains profitable

Intercity trains from the premium category (EIP, Pendolino) reached a profitability threshold in May with an average turnover of 53 percent, said board member Peter Ciżkowicz PKP SA. "It's a myth that the Pendolino trains run empty and that the PKP Intercity offer is targeted only to the rich," said Ciżkowicz during a press conference. To support his view, Ciżkowicz informed that one third of tickets are sold for less than PLN 60. The May sales profit stood at PLN 2.5 million and totaled PLN 7.4 million in June.
