Hi Luis,

I have also not been able to find good direct flights from SFO to something
close. The closest options I found was Munich. Usually, rome2rio will be
able to give a good estimate on the options, and that confirms my own
findings. I found it myself most convenient to fly (with a single stopover)
to Krakow and train from there.

Direct trains are probably your best bet. If trains have many services a
day, I'm less worried about timeliness.
Options I looked into: flying to Krakow (1h train, with many options a
day), Katowice, Warsaw (few hour train) or Prague (5h train).

Just in case that's helpful :)
