01
Route overview
From Kraków Balice Airport (KRK), the road to Chełm (Chelm) is about 430 km long and takes about 3 hours 50 minutes. The airport sits west of Kraków, outside the city. The car then takes the A4, the S19 and the S12, with Tarnów behind you after roughly 50 minutes, Nisko after about 1 hour 55 minutes and Lublin after around 3 hours.
Your driver meets you at the terminal of Kraków Balice Airport and takes you to any address in Chełm. Passengers who have just landed in Kraków use it to get home in a single ride, with no changes. One practical point: Lublin is the last big landmark, and about 50 minutes remain once you pass it.
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 short first stop fits after Tarnów, at about 50 minutes, and a longer break near Nisko, at about 1 hour 55 minutes, which is nearer the middle of the journey. Service areas and large fuel stations line the A4 and S19. Ask the driver to stop whenever you need to.
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.
