The full price — including night or luggage charges — should be shown before checkout, not worked out at the car.
Your driver should wait in the arrivals hall with your name, not in a car park you have to find.
Delays happen. Good companies track your flight and include waiting time — we include 60 minutes.
Plans change. Look for free cancellation up to at least 24 hours before pickup.
Read the newest reviews, not just the average — they tell you how the service is running now.
The company name, company ID (IČO) and a phone number that's answered should be on the website.
Two or more people, children, several suitcases, a late-night landing or simply not wanting to think after a long flight. Split between 2–4 passengers, a private transfer costs roughly the same per person as the Airport Express — but takes you to the door, and the price can't change after you book.
If you're travelling alone with a backpack in the daytime, Trolleybus 59 to Nádraží Veleslavín and Metro A into the centre is cheap and easy. If you're catching a train onward, the Airport Express goes straight to the main station. We'd rather you take the right option than book us for the wrong trip.
We're a small, owner-run Prague airport transfer company rated 5.0★ on Google. Every price includes meet & greet in the arrivals hall, flight tracking and 60 minutes of free waiting, with free cancellation up to 24 hours before pickup. Read our reviews and compare for yourself.
It depends on your group and luggage. Solo travellers with a backpack in daytime: Trolleybus 59 + Metro A (about 40 CZK). Two or more people, heavy luggage, children or a late arrival: a pre-booked private transfer, which costs about the same as a taxi but is fixed before you fly and the driver meets you inside arrivals.
For 2–4 people, usually yes: a private transfer from 940 CZK split between passengers is close to public transport per person, door to door, with no luggage on crowded buses. For one person travelling light in daytime, public transport is cheaper and perfectly fine.
Look for a fixed price shown before you pay, a driver who waits inside the arrivals hall with your name, flight tracking, free waiting time, free cancellation, recent Google reviews, and company details (name and company ID) on the website.
We'd say we're a strong choice — owner-run, rated 5.0★ on Google, with meet & greet, flight tracking and 60 minutes of free waiting included. But we're not the cheapest option for a solo traveller in daytime, and we're a small team, so book ahead for busy dates.
Uber and Bolt usually cost about 700–1,500 CZK to the centre depending on demand, you meet the driver at the pickup zone rather than inside arrivals, and there's no flight tracking. A pre-booked transfer from 940 CZK is fixed when you book and waits for you if your flight is late.
From 940 CZK for up to 4 people. Meet & greet in arrivals, flight tracking, 60 minutes free waiting.
