Route Breakdown

• Kochi to Palakkad (~150 km, 3 hrs) — NH 544 through Thrissur. Flat, fast highway

Why a Cab Beats Bus, Train, or Flight

• Door-to-door: No auto/cab at both ends. Pickup from your Kochi address, drop at your Bangalore destination
• Overnight travel: Leave Kochi at 10-11 PM, reach Bangalore by 7-8 AM. Sleep in the car, save a hotel night
• Luggage freedom: No weight limits — ideal for relocations, college admissions, or family moves
• Flexible stops: Break journey at Salem, visit Ooty as a detour, or stop at Dhaba restaurants on NH 44
• Group savings: For 3-4 passengers, a cab costs about the same as individual flight tickets (once you add airport transfers)
