Flying from Prague as an expat: a practical departure checklist

Living in Czechia and flying from Prague? Plan your car journey, parking payment and shuttle without confusing arrivals with departures.

Start with your airline, not a generic timetable

Check your flight dates, baggage and airline instructions for check-in and security. Confirm the terminal for your actual flight: Terminal 1 handles non-Schengen destinations and Terminal 2 handles Schengen destinations.

Check travel documents and entry requirements with the relevant authorities for your citizenship and destination. Living in Czechia does not by itself establish the documents you need. This guide is about planning parking, not immigration advice.

Choose the confirmed car park as your destination

FLY24 PRG serves people leaving a car while flying from Prague. It is not a city-centre transfer for visitors arriving on holiday. Drnovská and Horoměřice are outdoor sites outside the airport grounds, not terminal garages.

Use the address in your confirmation. Book arrival at the car park, allowing time for parking, the shuttle and your airline requirements. Arrive at that confirmed time. The usual five-minute shuttle drive is not a guarantee of total processing time.

Check price, payment and passenger details

Both arrival and return calendar days count. Monday to the following Monday is eight days. The arrival date sets the price period. Use the calculator, then check the total and available time in Parkovato before submitting.

Pay cash on arrival in CZK or EUR; no online prepayment or card payment. Include every passenger, including children. Agree a child seat, unusual luggage or special vehicle in advance. For business travel, provide invoice details in the booking notes.

Save the confirmation for your return

Park yourself and take your key. Save the car park address, phone and management link, and keep them accessible on your return. A flight change does not automatically update your reservation.

After landing, collect luggage and call when ready to reach the meeting point. With hand luggage only, call after leaving the aircraft when ready. The driver confirms the current stop and returns you to your booked car park.
