The problem begins when you treat the price displayed today as the price of a ride in two months, or assume that simply viewing the offer means you've found a driver.

Kiss & Fly at Gdańsk Airport – price list, rules and how 10 minutes are counted
Kiss&Fly at Gdańsk Airport is free for 10 minutes, but only for the first four entries within one 24-hour period.
