John Paul II Kraków–Balice Airport (KRK) is the main international gateway for Kraków, serving a mix of full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines, so fares can often be competitive compared with other Polish hubs. The airport sits about 11 km west of the Old Town; taxi rides to the center typically take 20–30 minutes and can cost roughly PLN 40–80, while the frequent Airport Shuttle bus (lines 208/252) or dedicated airport coach usually takes 30–40 minutes for a lower fare. On arrival you’ll find basic amenities and several car-rental desks; the compact layout makes transfers straightforward but peak times can be busy and some budget services operate from simpler gates, which may mean fewer lounge options.
