I've found ATMs give me great international rates
- my account is in the US
with Bank of America, by the way, so your mileage may vary. I arrived at
the airport today and used an ATM in the main airport lobby, all the way on
the other side from the arrivals gate (forgot the bank name). I withdrew
200 PLN, which according to Google is $60.61 USD. I checked my bank account
and found it charged $61.44, plus the $1 fee my own bank charges for all ATM
withdraws. Not bad, considering that I was going to change some cash
exchange and got offered just a little over half that rate.

There is an ATM in the airport, if you can withdraw money from another
account.
The Airport bus is said to take euros, as well as PLN:
