Prague’s only Airport, Ruzyne, has been recently expanded and is about 20 km north-west of the centre, and is not directly accessible by metro or tram.

Taxis:
Airport taxis are regulated but often charge illegally high prices. The charge for a 25-30 minutes trip should not exceed 300 Kc, which is usually enough to getting to the city centre. Alternatively, you may try calling to one of local taxi services to fetch you.

Express Bus:
Two express buses run every half an hour from the airport into town, first stopping in Prague 6 at Dejvicka metro - the end station on the green Line A - and then to the Revolucni Trida in Prague 1. The express buses are quick and cheap at 15 Kc for the 20-minute ride to the Dejvicka and 30 Kc for the 35-minute ride to the Revolucni Trida. Night bus 510 goes from the airport to Divoka Sarka, where you can catch night tram 51 to the centre.

Local Bus:
Two local buses run from the airport to metro stations about every 20 minutes from 5 a.m. to midnight. Bus 119 runs from the airport to Dejvicka metro station (green Line A) and bus 179 goes to Nove Butovice metro (yellow Line B). This is the cheapest but also the slowest alternative. If you have a lot of luggage, you will have to buy extra tickets for your bags. The buses depart from the stands in front of the arrivals hall. There you&rsquot;ll also find find orange public ticket machines, which work from change.
