Travel / Cost of private driver with car from Warsaw airport to Elblag [9]

Thread attached on merging:
Price and availability of taxi from Malbork to Elblag late on Sunday nite

Czesc!
We will be arriving in Malbork around 23:45 on a Sunday night by train from Warszawa. We need to get to Elblag that night. Do you know if there are taxis at the train station so late on a Sunday night? Would a taxi driver drive us all the way to Elblag? What do you think a fair price for this trip would be. We are 2 persons.

Dziekuje for your help.

Travel / Cost of private driver with car from Warsaw airport to Elblag [9]

I wonder if the problem may be that we are not arriving by plane to Warsaw until 15:25, and by the time we clear immigration, take a bus to the train station, we won't make a connection to get us to Elblag. But I'm not sure. It's not easy to figure out the trains, since we would have to travel to Malbork or Gdansk and then change to another train. The cost is 100 zloty for a first class ticket from Warsaw to Gdansk, and about another 10-20 zloty from Gdansk to Elblag, but I haven't found connections that seem they'll work. So it seems that train fare for 4 would be about 450 zloty, and the driver is asking for another 550 zloty over that. It seems like that is unreasonable. Any further thoughts?

A Polish woman told me that it would cost US$500 one way to hire a driver with a car to take 4 people from Warsaw airport to Elblag. Is this true? We want to go by train, but were told by this lady that it will take too long and cost the same, since we have to pay for 4 persons. Please tell us if this information is true. It sounds very wrong to me. But maybe it will take a long time to get there, and that is why she is telling us we must hire this expensive driver? We travel in 3 days, so we'd appreciate hearing anyone's opinion. Dziekuje bardzo!
