When to fly
Prague's Christmas markets, spring weekends and school holidays drive demand on this route, and fares can rise around those dates. April is the lowest month in the calendar, which covers November to May. Book early for December and Easter trips, because connecting seats tighten once city-break dates fill. Weekend departures around city breaks can be tighter, so compare weekdays too, and check dated fares for your exact dates.
