Prague Airport expects a busy summer season, shares tips for a smooth flight

Prague Airport is preparing for a busy summer season in 2023 as travel returns to pre-pandemic levels, and has shared some tips for hassle-free flying to ensure passengers have a smooth experience.

This summer, Prague Airport expects to process more than three million passengers. Officials want to make sure passengers are fully prepared for their flight and arrive to the airport at least two hours before their departure.

“A demanding summer season is again upon us. We have been getting ready for this for a long time. We launched a recruitment campaign and invited interested parties to two recruitment days at the airport, during which we presented various job positions to them," Jiří Pos, chairman of the Prague Airport board of directors, says in a press release.

"We work closely with travel agencies and inform passengers on how to best prepare for their departure. We are also launching projects which will make the demanding summer traffic easier for us in the coming years, for example, replacing the X-rays at security screening points.”

The airport's recruitment campaign to bolster its summer workforce covers jobs throughout the entire airport. Applicants can find all open positions at Prague Airport’s careers website.

“It has proven useful for us to provide passengers with information on how to prepare for their departure well in advance," adds Eva Krejčí, Prague Airport's director of communications.

"We are therefore running our extensive educational campaign again this year, asking passengers to arrive at the airport with enough time, which should be at least two hours before departure. We also ask them to go straight to security or passport control after checking in.”

In order to help passengers prepare for hassle-free travel this summer, Prague Airport has shared ten tips for smooth flying in a press release. While these tips won't be anything new for frequent flyers, it's always good to remind yourself before heading out to the airport.
