Heydar Aliyev International Airport to Gabala

Your flight lands in Baku, but your trip starts in Gabala. This page is for that.
How long the drive takes
240 kilometres, about 3 hours 40 minutes.
That is without stops. It is a long road: leaving straight from the airport puts you in Gabala in the late afternoon. Plan your hotel check-in around that.
Most of the route runs across flat country and the last stretch climbs into the mountains. Conditions there change in winter. If you are travelling in winter, send your date early.
Why go direct
The alternative is to go into Baku, stay the night, and set off for Gabala in the morning. That costs you a day and a hotel night.
A direct transfer means getting into a car after your flight and sleeping in Gabala. After a long flight, the difference is worth having.
Where your driver meets you
You choose. In the arrivals hall with a name board, at the exit, or in the car park.
If your flight is delayed, your driver comes for the new time, and we do not charge extra. We wait until you come out. The flight number is all we need.
Stopping on the way
On a four-hour drive, a stop is normal. Tea, lunch, a photo.
Tell us when you book and we build the time into the schedule and the figure into the quote. A stop agreed in advance never turns into a surprise afterwards.
Vehicle and luggage
A sedan takes one large suitcase comfortably. With three or four you need the minivan. For a bigger group there is a minibus and a bus.
People heading to Gabala usually carry more: winter sports kit, things for children. Tell us in advance.
We provide child seats. Tell us the child’s age.
Payment
Cash, card, or bank transfer. Tell us which suits you when you book.
What we need to quote you
Flight date and number, how many of you there are, how many bags, and your address in Gabala. With those we give you the current price.
