Flying vs train rom Krakow to Berlin

We are looking for a nonstop flight from Krakow to Berlin. It looks like the only nonstop is on Ryan air.
Has anyone flown that route versus the train which is several hours.

The fastest rail connection I saw on the Deutsche Bahn website was over 8 hours, so flying sounds like a plan.

I have so far managed to avoid RyanAir, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Just be very careful about the airports being used on both ends of the trip; RyanAir is particularly bad about using the cheapest landing strip even if it's 40 miles from the city named on your ticket. Check the luggage policy very carefully, and be sure you understand the airline's customer-unfriendly rules, which include (as of the last time I heard about them) charging a very great deal of money (maybe $70??) if you need to have you boarding pass printed at the airport and requiring certain passport holders (including Americans) to visit an extra desk at the airport that may not be so easy to find.

There are three versions of this thread running, the other two in the Poland and Germany forums. I suggest that other respondents answer in one of the other threads.
