No prepayment or deposit is required — you pay after the ride. The entire process is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. You can also modify or cancel your booking at any time for free through the link in your confirmation email.

Do you track my flight?

Yes, we actively monitor all flight arrivals at Gdańsk Airport using real-time flight tracking systems. If your flight is delayed by 30 minutes or 3 hours, we automatically adjust your pickup time accordingly — there is no need to call or message us. This means your driver will always be waiting when you actually land, not when you were originally scheduled to arrive. If your flight arrives early, we adjust as well. There is no extra charge for flight delays or early arrivals. The driver waits for you at the arrivals hall with a name sign, and you receive a confirmation message when they are in position. This service is included in every booking at no additional cost.

Can I pay by card?

Yes, we accept a wide range of payment methods to suit every traveler. You can pay by credit or debit card (Visa, Mastercard), Apple Pay, Google Pay, Revolut, or cash in Polish złoty (PLN). All payments are collected after the ride is completed — there is no prepayment or deposit required when you book. If you need a VAT invoice for business purposes, just let us know when booking and we will provide one after your transfer. For international travelers who prefer not to carry Polish currency, card or mobile payment is the most convenient option — our drivers carry portable card terminals in every vehicle.

Is there a night surcharge?

We apply a night rate for rides between 10 PM and 6 AM, as well as on Sundays and Polish public holidays. For example, the airport-to-city-center fare is 100 PLN during the day and 120 PLN at night — a difference of just 20 PLN. All prices are clearly displayed upfront when you make your booking, so there are no hidden charges or surprises. The price you see at the time of booking is the exact price you pay. Unlike Uber or street taxis, our night rate is a fixed amount that does not change based on demand, wait times, or traffic conditions. This means you can land at 2 AM and know exactly what your transfer will cost before you even board your flight.

How far is Gdańsk airport from Sopot?

Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport is approximately 22 kilometres from Sopot, and the taxi ride typically takes around 25–30 minutes depending on traffic. The route follows the S6 expressway northward through the Oliwa district before reaching Sopot's tree-lined streets. Our fixed fare for this route starts from 120 PLN during the day and 150 PLN at night. For comparison, the SKM commuter train from the airport to Sopot takes about 35–45 minutes with a transfer at Gdańsk Wrzeszcz, and the last train departs around 11 PM. A pre-booked taxi is the most convenient option, especially if you are arriving late at night, travelling with luggage, or with children. Your driver takes you directly from the terminal to your Sopot hotel or apartment door.

Can I cancel my booking?

Yes, you can cancel your booking at any time completely free of charge — there are no cancellation fees or penalties whatsoever. You can also edit your reservation details (date, time, pickup address, flight number) through the self-service link in your confirmation email. We believe in full flexibility because travel plans change, especially when flights get rescheduled or itineraries shift. If you need to change your booking last minute, even an hour before pickup, simply use the edit link or contact us via WhatsApp or email. There is no prepayment taken at booking, so cancellation costs you nothing. This no-risk policy is one of the reasons travelers prefer our service over paying deposits to larger transfer companies.

How do I get from Gdańsk airport to Sopot?

The fastest and most comfortable way to get from Gdańsk Airport to Sopot is by pre-booked taxi. The journey is 22 km and takes approximately 25–30 minutes door-to-door, with a fixed price starting from 120 PLN. Your driver waits at the arrivals hall with a name sign and takes you directly to your Sopot address. The alternative is the SKM commuter train, which costs around 8–12 PLN but requires a transfer at Gdańsk Wrzeszcz or Gdańsk Główny station, takes 35–45 minutes total, and does not run after approximately 11 PM. City bus 122 also connects the airport to Gdańsk, but does not go directly to Sopot. If you arrive after 10 PM, travel with heavy luggage, or have children, a taxi is by far the most practical choice.

Is Uber available at Gdańsk Airport?

Uber does operate in the Gdańsk area, but availability at the airport can be unreliable — especially late at night, early in the morning, and during peak travel seasons. Wait times at GDN Airport often range from 10 to 20 minutes, and surge pricing frequently applies during high-demand periods, pushing the fare well above normal rates. There is also no designated Uber pickup point at the terminal, so you may need to walk to a general pickup area. By contrast, our pre-booked taxi service guarantees a driver waiting for you at the arrivals hall with a name sign, at a fixed price with no surge pricing, no matter what time your flight lands. We also track your flight, so the driver adjusts to delays automatically.

How much do taxis outside the Gdańsk airport terminal charge?

Unofficial and unbooked taxis waiting outside the arrivals terminal at Gdańsk Airport typically charge between 150 and 200 PLN for a ride to the city center — sometimes even more at night or during busy periods. These taxis use meters that can run up quickly, especially in traffic or if the driver takes a longer route. Some do not accept card payments. Our pre-booked fixed price is 100 PLN for the same airport-to-city-center route during the day, making it significantly cheaper and more predictable. Because you book in advance, the price is confirmed before you even arrive in Gdańsk. You will also receive your driver's name and phone number in advance, along with a meet-and-greet service at the arrivals hall.

Is there a train from Gdańsk airport to the city?

Yes, the SKM commuter train connects Gdańsk Airport (station: Port Lotniczy) to the city center and other Tri-City stations including Gdańsk Wrzeszcz, Gdańsk Główny, Sopot, and Gdynia. Trains run approximately every 15–30 minutes during the day, with the journey to Gdańsk Główny taking about 25 minutes. A single ticket costs around 5–8 PLN. However, there are important limitations: the last train departs around 11 PM, and the first morning train does not leave until approximately 5 AM. There is no direct train service overnight. The train also does not go directly to most hotel locations — you will likely need a second connection or a short taxi ride from the station. If you arrive late, have heavy luggage, or travel with children, a pre-booked taxi is more convenient.

Is it safe to take a taxi from Gdańsk airport?

When using a licensed and pre-booked transfer service like Taxi Airport Gdańsk, taking a taxi from the airport is completely safe. All our drivers hold professional taxi licences, carry full insurance, and are verified before joining our team. When you book, you receive the driver's full name and mobile phone number in your confirmation email, so you always know exactly who is picking you up. The driver meets you at the arrivals hall with a clearly visible name sign. We strongly advise against accepting rides from unmarked vehicles or individuals soliciting passengers outside the terminal — these are often unlicensed operators who charge inflated prices and may not carry adequate insurance. Pre-booking eliminates these risks entirely and gives you peace of mind from the moment you land.

Do you offer transfers to Malbork Castle?

Yes, we offer fixed-price taxi transfers from Gdańsk Airport directly to Malbork Castle (Zamek w Malborku). The castle is located approximately 60 km southeast of the airport, and the journey takes about 50 minutes via the A1 motorway. Malbork Castle is the largest Gothic castle in the world by land area and a UNESCO World Heritage Site — it is one of the most popular day trips from Gdańsk, attracting over 500,000 visitors annually. The castle is open year-round, and during summer months there are impressive sound and light shows on Saturday evenings. Book your transfer through our website and you will receive a confirmed fixed price. We can also arrange a return trip or wait for you at the castle if you prefer a round-trip transfer.

Can I book a taxi to the Hel Peninsula?

Yes, we offer fixed-price transfers from Gdańsk Airport to all towns on the Hel Peninsula, including Hel, Jastarnia, Jurata, Chałupy, Kuźnica, and Władysławowo. The journey to the tip of the peninsula (Hel town) covers approximately 80 km and takes about 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes, depending on the season and traffic on the narrow peninsula road. During the summer holiday months (July and August), traffic to Hel can be heavy, especially on weekends — we recommend booking early and allowing extra time. The Hel Peninsula is famous for its pristine beaches, seal sanctuary, and charming fishing villages. Our drivers know the best routes and can advise on optimal travel times to avoid congestion.
