Transportation to Airport from Prague City Center
Vaclav Havel Prague Airport
If you want to get to Václav Havel Airport in Prague using public transportation, such as the metro, tram, or bus, you can get in close proximity to the airport and then take a bus or airport shuttle the rest of the way. There are a variety of options depending on your location or method of transportation.
Václav Havel Airport is also accessible by personal car, taxi, or rental car.
Airport Shuttle Buses
If you are in an area close to the Hlavní Nádraží, Masarykovo Nádraží, or Náměstí Republiky stations then you can walk to transfer to another vehicle to get to the Airport Express Bus, which run through these stops and is operated by Czech Railways. We recommend purchasing your tickets beforehand because they are cheaper if you buy them online. You can also use the Minibus Cedaz, which is operated by AAA Taxi, to get to the airport. This service is more expensive. Minibus Cedaz runs between Náměstí Republiky and the airport every 30 minutes.
You can also take advantage of private transfer services or shuttles that provide door-to-door service. These door-to-door services are more luxurious than the other transportation alternatives. If you are planning on using a private transfer service you must make a reservation online.
Bus
There are a few bus lines that stop at some of the metro stations in the city and go directly to the airport. If you’re in the city center, these buses that go directly to the airport take about 45 minutes. Bus lines that go through the city include lines 100, 119, and 191. If you’re close to the city center, the most practical option is to take advantage of the metro station that bus 119 passes by. If you are traveling to the airport after midnight you have to use Night Bus 510. Bus line 100, which departs from Zličín on metro line B, gets to the airport in 18 minutes.
Bus line 100 runs every 12-30 minutes. Bus line 119, which departs from Nádraží Veleslavín on metro line C, gets to the airport in 17 minutes. Bus line 119 runs every 5-20 minutes. The most preferred is bus line 191, which departs from Anděl on the B Line and takes about 48 minutes to get to the airport. This bus also passes by the A Line Station. Night Bus 510 gets from I. P. Pavlova to the airport in about 42 minutes. This bus also passes by Arbesovo náměstí.
Metro
Although the Prague metro network is quite advanced there is no direct access to the airport by metro.
However, you can take the metro to access the airport shuttle buses. You can access bus line 191, which goes directly to the airport, from the Petřiny Station.
The Prague metro is divided into three main lines, A, B, and C. The A Line, also known as the Green Line, operates between Prague Castle, Lesser Town, Old Town Square, Wensceslas Square in the New Town, and Depo Hostivař.
The B Line, also known as the Yellow Line, starts at Zličín Station south of Lesser Town and runs to Můstek Station, which intersects with the A Line. From there it continues to Černý Most Square, which is east of Old Town. The C Line, also known as the Red Line, departs from Letňany Station and intersects with the B Line at Florenc Station and intersects with the A Line at Muzeum Station. From there the C Line continues to the Háje Station.
Tram
Another way to transfer to the airport buses is by taking the tram to the transfer locations. You can take trams 1, 2, 7, 9, 10, 18, 20, 22, 25, or 36 to transfer to the airport buses, which are close by. Trams are another way to access locations that the metro doesn’t.
The trams depart from the metro stops and go to various locations in the city. The tram network is a system that relieves local transportation. Trams run every 4-10 minutes during the day and every 30 minutes after midnight.
Train
Trains aren’t used as much for urban transportation. They are used more as an alternative method of transportation to other cities or countries. The high-speed trains that are used to travel between cities are a very popular method of transportation. The Praha Hlavni Nadrazi Train Station is the main departure point for these trains. In addition, some trains depart from Nadrazi Holešovice Station. You can access this station using metro line C. You can also use the train to transfer to the airport buses.
Taxi
Taxis are an expensive method of transportation in Prague. If you want to ensure comfortable transportation, renting a car would be a more viable option. Nevertheless, taxis are easily accessible in all parts of the city.
Rental Car
Renting a car is another way to get to the airport from the city center. It is also a convenient option for getting around in the city while you’re there. You can rent a car from the various rental car companies located in the city center or you can book a vehicle online beforehand.

Transportation to Bari City Center from Airport
Bari Karol Wojtyła Airport
Bari, which is located in the southeast of Italy, is also home to one of the most important ports of the region. The city accepted as the second largest city of Southern Italy after Napoli, has a very important place in both maritime and aerial transportation. The airport is very close to the city which is known with its small square and the world-famous cathedral.
The airport which is 8 kilometers of the city center also known as Karol Wojtyla or Palese Airport. Although the construction of the airport began in 1930s and was used for military purposes, today it has an important place for the tourism in the region. At the airport, there are restaurants and cafes where you can taste the famous delicacies of Italy, stores for those who want to do some shopping and car rental offices for those who want to continue with their travel with a private car.
At the bank branch found at the airport, you can perform many banking transactions including money transfers and foreign exchange transactions or you can use ATMs in the terminal.
There are different alternatives that you can spend time before and after your flight at the airport, which also has a private passenger lounge where you can have a good time before your travel and enjoy various tasty treats. There is also a parking area at the airport for passengers arriving with their cars.
There are many alternatives to get to the city center. To reach the city center from the airport, you can use the taxis waiting in front of the terminal, get on a bus or rent a car. Once you arrive at the city center by bus or taxi, you can continue your travel from the train station to different regions and cities located near the city.
Taxi
Your first transportation alternative to get to the city center from Bari Airport, which is also known as Palese Airport due to the region it is located in, is taxi. You can be in the city center in about 25 minutes by getting on a taxi waiting in front of the airport terminal building. There are two taxi companies offering service in Bari as Radio Taxi and EuroTaxi. Taxi fares are generally similar, but you will have to pay more during the weekends, on holidays and late hours of the night. Also remember that you will have to pay an extra amount for travelling with more than 4 people for your baggage.
Although taxi is a much more expensive alternative than other vehicles, especially buses, they are commonly preferred by passengers who have heavy baggage. Another advantage of taxi is that it takes you to your hotel or destination in a short time and leave you just in front of the door so you will not have to walk.
You have to make sure that the taxi you are getting on for reaching the city center is licensed. In fact, there are also taxis that offer service unofficially in the city, and these demand higher amounts from their customers.
To distinguish the licensed vehicles from others, keep in mind that taxis in the city are usually yellow and white, and there are license numbers on the glass in front of the driver. Another thing you need to be careful about when going to the city center by taxi is that the taximeter is open.
Sometimes taxi drivers may not want to run taximeters by telling you that they are out of order, but you can still insist on this or get on a different taxi.
Bus
In Bari, you can also add buses to the options for getting to the city center from the airport. Bus stands out as the most economical transportation alternative. Bus route 16 carries passengers to the central parts of Bari, including Aldo Moro Square. In addition, the train station is very close to this square. By transferring to the trains, you can visit nearby places and other destinations.
Buses, also known as AMTB in the city, arrive at the city center at the end of a travel of about 40 minutes from the center. Bus is a more economical option even if it takes longer to arrive at the city center. You can get to the city center by using these buses which operate from 05:00 pm to 09:30 pm.
You can also travel with Tempesta which is another bus company. This is a faster but slightly more expensive option than the other. Tempesta buses take you to the center of Bari in about 25-30 minutes. From Bari Airport, you can also travel to other airports near the city and to the port. It is very easy to get to the other airports which are close to the city with the buses operating more frequently during the summer months. From Bari Port, you can get on the ferries for going to cities like Dubrovnik and Kotor.
Train
Unlike most European cities, transportation between the city center and the airport cannot be provided by trains. For this reason, it is not possible to reach the city center directly from the airport by trains. However, you can arrive at the train station located in the city center by using the buses and from there you can travel to different regions by train.
The city center is 8 kilometers of the airport and this distance makes it difficult to travel between these two places with trains.
Car Rental
You can rent a car to travel between the city center and the airport or to visit nearby places during your visit. This one of the most comfortable options. You can rent any car you want from one of the car rental companies AVIS, Hertz, Europcar and Alamo.

Limousine
Luxury vehicles, which are usually preferred by those visiting the city for business purpose, are also among the options you can use to travel between the airport and the city center. Also in Bari like many other cities, the cost of renting a limousine and luxury vehicle is much higher than the other alternatives, but you can choose this option if you want to travel more comfortably.
Moreover, limousines offering service with private drivers are extremely comfortable for crowded families traveling with their children.
Hotel Shuttle
In Bari, you can also use hotel shuttles to get to the center of the city from the airport. Some hotels in the city offer airport shuttle transfer service for their guests. Not every hotel has this service. You can make a reservation by contacting your hotel before the travel to take advantage of the airport transfer service. Some hotels offer this service for free.
