Airport
Vaclav Havel Airport Prague handles flights of most European carriers and also overseas flights. It is located 30-45 minutes by car from the centre of Prague. There is a good connection between the airport and city centre by public transport and taxis. You can easily get to the city centre using one of the public buses. For the quickest transport to the city centre or the nearest metro station we advise using routes 119 and 100. Unfortunately, there is no subway or train connection to the city.
Taxi
