Lines Airport Bus Prague (Prague Airport Transfer)
Most buses are normal city buses, which can be used with normal local transport tickets.
From our point of view, the most important line is line 119: These airport buses connect Prague Airport with the nearest underground station. It is a station of line A (in Prague there are three metro lines A, B and C). The name of the metro station is Nadrazi Veleslavin. The journey time between the airport and the metro-station is about 20 minutes. Departures are very frequent, during the week about every 5 minutes during the day.
Also very useful is line 100: Similar to bus line 119, but to a subway station of line B (name Zlicin). Also frequent and good connections, travel time a bit longer than line 119.
AE Bus to Central Station: A real airport bus, direct to Prague Central Station with few stops. In normal traffic it takes a little more than half an hour to get to the main station. These buses cost slightly more (about 2,50 Euro instead of 1,50 Euro). Departures of the airport bus line AE are also frequent.
Line 191: This bus line also goes to the subway (Metro A and B). But this buses takes longer, especially to line B. To the station Andel (south of Prague Lesser Town) it takes more than 45 minutes.
There is also a night bus line. However, changing to night trams from the airport night bus is quite difficult, you should know Prague well. In addition you often wait very long for connection.
