Prague has a comprehensive and well-organised system of affordable municipal transport in the city and including metro, trams, trains, buses, ferries, and a funicular to the Petřín hill.
The easiest way to find your route and pay your ticket is using the Lítačka application (Google Play, AppStore).
The basic transfer ticket for an adult costs 30 CZK and is valid for 30 minutes. Affordable 24 hour ticket costs 140 CZK
Timetables and connections can be also found at www.dpp.cz/en
At midnight, the metro lines stop operating until 5 am. After that a network of night tram lines operates with a 30 minute interval.
If you plan to arrive by car, please note that parking in the (broadly defined) city centre is limited and quite expensive. Unfortunately we are unable to provide parking places for conference participants.
The Václav Havel Airport Prague (PRG) handles flights from most European cities and many overseas flights. The airport is located approximately 20 km northwest of the city centre. The airport consists of two terminals, terminal 2 for flights within the Schengen countries and terminal 1 for all other flights (walking distance from one terminal to the other). https://www.prg.aero/en#/
The airport is served either by public buses or taxi. Regular bus line no. 59 connects the airport with the underground line A - Station Nádraží Veleslavín. Regular line no. 100 connects the airport with underground line B - Station Zličín. The Airport Express (AE) buses connect the airport with the main railway station (Praha Hlavní nádraží). Please note that the regular Prague public transport tickets cannot be used on the AE bus line (tickets are bought on the bus and cost 100 CZK; payment in cash or by credit card). Traveling by public transport from the airport is easy and much preferable to using taxis.
The conference organisers will not undertake CO2 offsetting on your behalf. If you decide to travel by plane, this is your own responsibility.
Prague has good train connections with most European cities. Reaching Prague by train from any direction is therefore relatively easy, although not necessarily very fast. Prague main station (Hlavní nádraží) is linked to the C metro line (red) which connects it with the I.P. Pavlova metro station, from which it is possible to walk to the conference venue. Alternatively, it is possible to take tram lines 14 or 24 from the Jindřišská stop (walking distance from the main station) to the tram stop Albertov.
