01
Route overview
Travelling from Chełm (Chelm) to Kraków Balice Airport (KRK) means about 430 km and about 3 hours 50 minutes. The route follows the S12, S19 and A4, with Lublin passing after roughly 50 minutes, Nisko after about 1 hour 55 minutes and Tarnów at around 3 hours. The airport lies west of Kraków and outside the city.
The car picks you up at any address in Chełm and drops you at the terminal of Kraków Balice Airport. People choose it when they have a flight out of Kraków and want to avoid relying on connections. A practical point: this is among the longest trips from Chełm, so work out your departure back from the flight and keep a margin beyond the 3 hours 50 minutes on the road.
02
Stops along the way
The main advantage of a private transfer is a flexible schedule that fits around you. We plan comfort and coffee breaks every 2–3 hours at large, modern service stations. If you need one, you can always ask the driver for an extra rest stop.
A good place for a break is around the middle of the trip, near Nisko, which the car reaches after about 1 hour 55 minutes. The S19 and A4 have service areas and large fuel stations, so coffee and a short walk do not take you off the route. If you prefer to stop more often, tell the driver.
Our vehicles offer a quiet cabin, reliable climate control and the option to charge your devices on the move.
03
Luggage policy
How many suitcases fit depends on the vehicle: the capacity of each one is listed on our fleet page. Tell us about your luggage when booking and we will pick a car with enough room for both suitcases and hand luggage.
What to tell us in advance:
Oversized items — skis, a bicycle, a pushchair, a musical instrument or medical equipment. We will choose a vehicle with a suitable boot.
Child car seats:
Certified car seats and boosters for children of any age. Just mention it when booking and we will have the car ready for your arrival.
04
Travelling with pets (pet-friendly)
Cats and dogs of any size are welcome: S — 3.5–6 kg and 18–20 cm at the shoulder (a chihuahua or a cat), M — 6–15 kg (a French bulldog), L — 15–30 kg (a Labrador), XL — over 30 kg (a St Bernard). S and M pets travel in a certified carrier, L and XL in a protective car hammock with Isofix fastening. The cabin is thoroughly prepared and cleaned after every such trip.
We do not carry snakes, spiders or other exotic animals.
So the driver can prepare the cabin, please let us know when booking:
- Your pet's size — S, M, L or XL.
- How many pets are travelling with you.
- Whether you need our pet carrier or car hammock.

The essentials in brief. The rest of the answers are on the FAQ page.
