Transfer Rzeszów-Jasionka Airport (RZE) — Odesa

Expect a long drive: the journey from Rzeszów-Jasionka Airport to Odesa covers 980 km and, including a typical border crossing, takes approximately 15 hours. The road goes via Jarosław, Lviv, Ternopil, Khmelnytskyi, Vinnytsia and Uman, and the border is crossed at Krakovets–Korczowa. The time is indicative only.

After you land, the driver meets you in the arrivals hall with a name sign and keeps track of your flight status. The trip begins in Poland, so you first clear exit from Poland and the Schengen area, then entry into Ukraine. You stay in one car with one driver, who takes you to any address in Odesa.

For this route we most often use the Krakovets–Korczowa checkpoint. You first clear the exit check from Poland and, straight after it, the entry check into Ukraine. Waiting time at customs is variable and on average takes 1 to 3 hours. Our drivers have extensive experience of international trips and follow queue conditions through live cameras, so that where possible they can switch to a less busy checkpoint.

The statistics of average waiting time are shown below so you can plan the best day to travel.

Having the right set of documents is the guarantee of a quick, trouble-free customs check. Our drivers help with communication at the border and with declaring the vehicle, but passengers' personal documents are checked individually. We recommend keeping them in your hand luggage so you can show them to the border officers on request.

• Biometric international passportFor every passenger
• Health insurance (EU)Coverage from €30,000
• Proof of the purpose of the tripAccommodation booking, flight tickets
• Child's birth certificateFor children under 18
• Notarised consent of the other parentIf the child travels with one parent
• Notarised consent of both parentsIf the child travels with an authorised person

The main advantage of a private transfer is a flexible schedule that adapts to you. We plan restroom stops 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.

Our cars offer a quiet cabin, stable climate control and the option to charge your devices on the move.

At the border, customs and border officers may check your luggage and ask you to open your suitcases, so it is best to look into the rules before you set off. Below are the main restrictions and the items that must be declared. Limits and requirements change from time to time, so check the official customs websites before you travel.

We are glad to carry passengers with pets. Cats, small and medium-sized dogs and birds in cages may travel in the cabin. The animal must be in a special carrier, or on the back seat with a car harness.

There is no surcharge for a pet — but let us know when booking so the driver can prepare the cabin.

To cross the border with a pet you need:

• International veterinary passport.
• An implanted microchip.
• A valid rabies vaccination (given after microchipping).
• Rabies antibody test certificate (FAVN).
• International veterinary health certificate (Form 1).
