Plane and other Prague, Czech Republic Transportation Tips

'Mode': TO
Category: Airplane
Getting TO/AROUND: I came to Prague by plane. The airport is big and comfortable. That to get the metro station you need bus 119 that goes to Dejvicka Metro Station. The bus stop is just in front of the exit, under the bridge. You can buy a ticket in the airport building. Near of exit, to the right, there are some shops and one of them is a kind of tourist information where can buy ticket as well. About planes, I think it’s better to have Czech Airlines, it could be cheaper. I chose Aeroflot, Russian Airlines, and was completely disappointed by price and service.

Getting TO/AROUND: Public transport in Prague is great. You can use metro as well as busses and trams. I think trams are more useful and besides they go through the center. So if you get tram then you can enjoy wonderful views of the historical part of the city. The ticket is K 12 (EUR 0.4) and is valid for any type of transport (even for funicular) during 1 hour. To buy ticket is very easy. In every station of metro there are special ticket automats (yellow or orange colour). Besides you can find such automats near of bus or tram stops. In any way it is possible to buy ticket in the bus or tram but then the price is K 15 (EUR 0.5). If you plan to use transport during the day you can get day ticket for K 70 (EUR 2.35). That to make ticket valid you should punch it in the special automat. In the metro station the automats stay on the platform or just near of entrance; in busses and trams automat attach to handrails.
