Cedaz Minibus
Telephone – 220 114 296
A private company that can take you to namesti Republiky and Dejvicka metro station every hour from outside the arrivals building. If you want to be dropped off directly at your hotel then expect to pay 360Kc for one to four people and pay the driver when you get on.
Local buses
There are three buses that leave from outside the arrivals terminal every 20 minutes from 5am-midnight. The #179 goes to the Metro Nove Butovice station (yellow line B), the #108 to Metro Hradcanska (green line B) or the #119 to Metro Dejvicka (green line A). The down side is that they can get extremely busy and cramped – particularly if you’re carrying a lot of luggage, and take a while to get to their destinations so leave plenty of time for the return journey. Buy tickets from the machines or the information desks in the airport.
Taxi’s
Normal taxi’s are not allowed onto the airport grounds, so look out for the white Airport Cars at the ranks by arrivals. The fares are regulated by the airport authority so you shouldn’t be caught out and it will cost about 450Kc to the centre, and more to the other side of the city. There is, however, a 20 per cent discount for return journeys.
