Getting to Brno

Flying to Brno

  • Brno has a small airport with regular flights from Prague and London Stansted: http://www.airport-brno.cz/index.php?id=0&lang=en.
  • Take the bus number 76 from the airport to the Main train station (Hlavni nadrazi). The travel time from the airport to the city center is in both cases about 20 minutes. For one journey you need a regular 2-zone ticket valid for 60 minutes. It costs 22 CZK (0,80 EUR).
  • Taxis also offer affordable transportation within Brno (Brno's taxi-drivers have much better reputation than their colleagues in Prague).
