About Prague Airport 

The fairytale city of Prague is truly like something out of a storybook.

With so much to offer, Prague often makes it onto European itineraries. This means the Prague Airport sees a lot of traffic consisting of both domestic and international travelers. 

The Prague Airport is the main airport in the country and offers a range of flights across the Czech Republic, Europe and further abroad. The airport was built to replace Kbely Airport and was first opened in 1937. It has been renovated and extended many times over the years (most notably in 1956, 1968, 1997 and most recently, 2006), with this evolution resulting in the busy, modern airport it is today. The airport was renamed ‘Vaclav Havel Airport’ in 2012 after Vaclav Havel, the man who was the first president of the Czech Republic and also the last president of Czechoslovakia. It is located about seven miles from the city center of Prague, making it easy to get to and from the area.
