How airport pick-up works in Balice

Krakow Airport (Balice) is exactly 3 km from our base at ul. Lipowa 30 in Rząska. That is a few minutes of driving, which is why delivery to the terminal costs you nothing. For comparison, delivery to an address in Krakow is 3 PLN per kilometre, and 5 PLN per kilometre outside the city. To the airport we drive for free, and that is our biggest advantage over rental desks in the city centre.

All we need when you book is your flight number and the scheduled landing time. We use them to agree the pick-up point and hour, and if the plane is late, one short message is enough for us to move the meeting time within our working hours. You do not have to hunt for us around the car parks or drag your luggage across the terminal. We tell you exactly where the car is parked and meet you there.

The paperwork happens at the car. You need to be 18 or over and hold a category B driving licence – that is it. Contract, a quick walk-around of the car, keys, and you are on the road. Full insurance is included in the rental price, and if someone else will be driving we add a second driver for 200 PLN.

Returning the car is just as simple. Before your flight home we meet you at the terminal, take the car back and you walk straight to check-in. No taxi across town, no extra hour budgeted for getting to a rental office. We work every day from 10:00 to 22:00 – if your flight falls outside those hours, call ahead and ask.

Why collect your car at the airport?

Concrete reasons why people landing at KRK call us instead of queuing at an arrivals hall desk.

Free airport delivery

Delivery to Krakow Airport (Balice) costs 0 PLN. Nothing is added for bringing the car to the terminal.

3 km from the terminal

Our base in Rząska is minutes from the arrivals hall, so the car is at the terminal for your landing time.

Pick-up timed to your flight

Give us your flight number and landing time when you book – we agree the pick-up point and hour around them. If the flight moves, one message is enough.

Return at the terminal

Before departure you hand the car back where you picked it up. Straight from the car park to check-in.

Full insurance included

Full insurance is part of the rental rate. A second driver can be added to the contract for 200 PLN.

Cars no rent-a-car desk has

Instead of a forgettable hatchback you get a Mercedes-AMG GT63s, BMW M2 or Audi RS3. Same procedure, completely different drive.

Drive away

Sign the contract at the car, take the keys and go. Before your departure you hand it back in the same spot.

Car rental at Krakow Airport

A standard rent a car at Krakow airport means a queue at the desk and a compact you will not remember. Car hire at Krakow Airport with us works differently: you get a car that turns the drive from the terminal into part of the trip. A Mercedes-AMG GT63s or A45s, BMW M2, BMW M550i (also in the 700 hp version), Audi RS3 and RS5, Chevrolet Camaro SS or Volkswagen Golf 8R make a difference from the first kilometre. Prices start at around 549 PLN for 12 hours, and the most expensive models cost around 1699 PLN for 12 hours.

From Balice you join the ring road immediately and have a clear run towards the Tatra mountains. Zakopane is roughly two hours away on the Zakopianka road, with Myślenice, Rabka, Nowy Targ and the rest of Lesser Poland along the way. For mountain roads and a full boot of luggage the Jaguar F-PACE and Alfa Romeo Stelvio work well, and for a bigger group with ski gear we have the Mercedes V-Class and Ford Transit. A car collected at the airport gives you full freedom – no planning your days around bus timetables.

Formalities at pick-up are kept to a minimum. You need to be 18 or over and hold a category B driving licence – no hour-long paperwork. You sign the contract at the car, we check its condition and fuel level together, and full insurance is included in the price. Adding a second driver costs 200 PLN, so you can share the wheel on longer routes.

Three groups use our airport pick-up the most. Business travellers who drive straight to a meeting after landing and need something formal – a BMW 740Ld, an Audi A6, or a Mercedes V-Class for the whole team. Tourists who treat the rental as part of the holiday and would rather get into an Audi RS5 than onto a bus. And people flying into Krakow for a weekend, a stag party or a birthday who want the car to make an impression.

We confirm bookings by phone on +48 733 323 573 or by email at biuro@szybkafura.com. We work seven days a week from 10:00 to 22:00 and call you back within 15 minutes. Tell us your flight and how many days you need the car, and we will match a model and quote an exact price. Car rental in Balice is our everyday routine, so arranging an airport handover takes minutes.
