Prague Airport

Not Verified | Last minute gate changes, staff had poor command of English, felt like a bus station, #notcentraleurope. Of the tens of airports I've used this was the worst.

✅ Trip Verified | Ridiculous 35+ minutes standing on a bus waiting to be taken to the plane. Bus was filled within 10 minutes of the gate opening, but we were forced to wait for over half an hour without explanation. Waiting area in the B10 to B18 section of Terminal 1 had no shops or places to get food or drink - just one small vending machine in one corner. The experience here has spoilt a good trip to a beautiful city.

Not Verified | It's a very nice airport. The staff is very nice. I flew to Dubai, the plane went on time. Check-in was faster than at other airports, although it was 3 hours.

✅ Trip Verified | Bad airport; 1- rude service, 2- inefficient processes, 3- outrageous baggage costs, 4- uninterested staff. After a great business trip to Prague with nothing but great things, I was surprised that though so modernized, Prague Airport had the worst to offer. Lucky I got in with plenty of time as the process for any extra bag means even after lining up at check-in, you have to go to a separate desk where they have a call center to place 20 minute calls and talk about your situation. You pay at least twice the average fee for the second bag even for a 1 hour flight within Europe. Then with short dismissive instruction you queue up again at check-in. I waited my turn and was bounced across to original service lady being even more dismissive. Finally getting the second bag tag I then was told “bye”, which after clarification meant I needed to go to the oversize counter, even though it was a regular plastic case. At this point I have lined up three times and attended four different counters across three corners of the departures floor. After all this and in my rush to the gate, I came across a pair of boarding passes dropped on the ground. I collected the tickets and provided them to the nearest service desk. Unbelievably I was told to take them to the information desk. I clarified I was in a rush but wanted to help. The response stood. I took them and felt good to maybe have serviced a fellow passenger because none of the service ladies or management seem to want to, at this unmemorable airport

Not Verified | Nice airport, staff are attentive and communicate very well in english. A bit slow when it comes to lines but is understandable by the amount of people. Migration staff just fine.

✅ Trip Verified | The airport is nothing special, there are a few shops and bars / restaurants, but that's it. It was clean and the signage was good. Unfortunately, everything closes at 10 p.m. while flights are still arriving and departing. it would be nice if a few bar were open midnight.

✅ Trip Verified | Incredibly rude airport security staff. The staff at the security scanner lost her patience at me when I simply and politely asked if she spoke English. She then snapped at me asking if I had an iPad etc, I responded no and she forcefully shoved my luggage through the scanner. Such unprofessional behaviour. I can't believe someone with such poor patience, a very poor attitude, and and with complete disregard for others belongings has managed to maintain a job in customer service. I'm sure not all Czech people are as horrible as her, but she did leave a lasting impression.

✅ Trip Verified | Very modern airport in the middle of central Europe, very clean with many shops. Fast and effective security check. Free airport Wi-Fi, very clean toilets and others public areas. I can recommend restaurant Prague, very cheap food around £ 3.00 located on the first floor of Terminal 1.

Not Verified | Do not be in any rush to go through security. They pull your hand bag, my wife had cosmetics. You are there for a minimum of 30 minutes so be ready. The best was the agent was looking at the makeup, he finished looking and just walked away – bag at the agents side, did not say one word, just walked out. After 10 minutes I finally asked where did he go, you can take your bag. Too bad it would be stupid to say anything.

✅ Trip Verified | Very easy to use airport with two terminals - one for flights to Shengen countries, the other for non-Shengen countries. I flew in and out of European locations. Arrival was hassle free with bags on tarmac to pick up and walk into terminal. Inside are tourist offices and car rentals. I was directed to a booth which sold tickets on public transportation to the City. The clerk was helpful showing me my destination on a map and selling the ticket - accepted my credit card. Frequent buses from outside the terminal connects with the terminus stop on a subway line that goes through the heart of Prague. In less than 30 minutes I was at my destination. The subway station does not have escalators. Buses and trains have good signage. The trip was also very inexpensive - the equivalent of less than USD 1.50. Ditto for return. Subways are clean and fast. Buses are large and modern with frequent announcements about upcoming stops. Departure gates required quite a bit of walking. Noticed an absence of moving sidewalks. A few shops and cafes in the departure area. Lot of seating and clean bathrooms. Security checks unobtrusive and quick. Overall, an uncrowded easy to use airport.
