Prague - Ruzynĕ Airport (PRG) Information

Introduction

The main aviation gateway to the Czech Republic, Prague-Ruzynĕ Airport is situated 10kms northwest of the city and handles 7.5 million passengers per year. Flights connect with many of the major cities of Europe. There are two terminals: the newer North Terminal, which serves most international and charter flights; and the South Terminal, for domestic flights and general aviation. Transfer between the terminals is via bus, minibus or taxi.

The 2005 World Airport Awards named Prague the second-best airport in eastern Europe (after Leipzig), based on a passenger survey of airport standards.

Covered parking for more than 3,000 vehicles is available in car park C, adjacent to the North Terminal. Rates are €1.35 per hour, €16.85 per day, and €85 per week, with additional days costing €3.35. A small (125-space) car park at the South Terminal charges similar rates.
