The group flew into Warsaw from JFK International Airport in New York City and flew back home from there at the end of the trip.  The initial stay in Warsaw did not last more than a few hours as the group just needed to wait to connect to the train.  At the end of the trip, the team stayed in Warsaw for two nights experiencing cultural, historical and religious sites throughout their stay.  A beautiful city that needed to be rebuilt after World War II, Warsaw represented a beautiful end to an amazing experience.
