From Seven Hours to 60 Minutes: New Flights Between Prague and the Tatras

Travel between Prague and the Tatras region in Slovakia will soon be quicker, as a popular low-cost airline is launching a new route connecting the Czech capital with Poprad in northeastern Slovakia.

Until now, the only way to travel between these two destinations was by train or coach.

Currently, the only air link between Slovakia and Prague has been from Košice Airport, with daily Ryanair flights.

Wizz Air plans to launch the new service in late October, with departures on Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. The flight will take about one hour, making it much faster than the seven-hour train ride or the even longer bus journey.

Many people from eastern Slovakia work or study in Prague. Starting in October, they will be able to make the trip for €24.99.

With eastern Slovakia now gaining another direct air connection to Prague, people are wondering when a similar route will open between Prague and the Slovak capital. Ryanair recently said they are open to this idea, but need to analyse the data first.

The last direct flight between the two capitals operated in 2019. At present, travellers from both Prague and Bratislava can use the flights between the Austrian capital and Prague.
