Contactless Payment Expanding on All Prague Buses

The Prague Public Transit Company (DPP) will install terminals for payment of the ticket by card in all its buses. On Friday the company started installing terminals in trams where they had not yet been. They will start working by the end of April. A selection procedure shall be issued for the operation of terminals on DPP buses.  The card can now be used in Prague in trams on lines 18 and 22.  “We want to introduce contactless payment into all DPP buses. I assume that we will announce a contract for this service this year,” said Petr Witowski, CEO of the company. At the end of last year, the company introduced a non-cash payment of the fare on suburban bus lines it operates. By the end of April, all the trams will be equipped with payment terminals. Contactless payment will be possible at the middle door. On tram models 14T, known colloquially as Porsche, there will be two devices since the tram does not have a middle door. The device will print a ticket for the passenger, which like other transit tickets can be used on other public transport links up until its time limit expires. Last year, the company...

Prague Airport: Here Comes the Summer

On Sunday, March 31, 2019, the summer schedule comes into effect at Václav Havel Airport Prague. For the duration of the season, a total of 69 airlines will be operating regular scheduled direct flights from Prague, heading to 162 destinations in 54 countries. There will also be direct flights to 16 long-haul destinations, which is the largest number in the airport’s modern history. “As part of the summer timetable, a total of four new airlines will be launching services from Václav Havel Airport Prague, two of them on long-haul routes. This proves our long-term success in motivating an ever-increasing number of airlines to open new routes from Prague, which ultimately means a wider choice of flights for our passengers,” says Vaclav Rehor, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Prague Airport. In comparison with the previous summer season, the total number of airlines running direct flights from Prague this summer will increase by two. Four new airlines, Air Arabia, SCAT Airlines, SunExpress, and United Airlines, will be operating their flights from Prague for the first time. “The forthcoming summer timetable also confirms our long-term success in implementing a strategy to develop long-haul routes. During the summer, direct flights will be available from...

Preparations For Further Metro Mobile Signal Under Way

The Prague Transport Company (DPP) is preparing another extension of the mobile signal in the metro. Another two dozen stations should be covered at the beginning of next year.  Now people are able to call or connect to the Internet between Museum and Roztyly on line C and between Dejvicka and Motol Hospital on line A. The metro is due to be completely covered with mobile signal until 2022. According to the implementation schedule, these stations will be put into trial operation during the first quarter of 2020. In the spring of next year, it will be possible to surf the Internet in 28 stations and related metro tunnels,” said DPP spokesperson Aneta Řehková. The pilot operation has been on metro line C between Museum and Roztyly since last year. “The trial operation is still in progress and so far there have been no problems that would prevent the planned approval”. The DPP Supervisory Board approved a contract with a consortium of operators for 20 years, wherein the first ten years operators pay out CZK 120 million to the DPP. Currently, all 61 metro stations are covered by a mobile signal, some of which, for example, Depo Hostivař, use the signal...

Ikea to Close Wenceslas Square Point

The Ikea furniture point in the center of Prague will close after a year.  “Ikea Point will be open to customers till the end of August 2019,” the operator said. The so-called Ikea Point was the first attempt of the Swedish company for an unusual selling format in the Czech Republic. It opened in September 2018 as part of a trial to bring the Ikea home furnishing range and expertise closer to more customers. “Within a year, the concept will change and if it meets the goals, we may change the location,” said project manager Petr Tichý during the opening of Ikea Point. Lease agreement – Ikea is in the center of the city in the hotel Pytloun, which in the same building Golden Wheat is located on the floors above it  – was signed for two years, with the possibility of extension. “Another use of space from September 2019 is on the landlord Pytloun Boutique Hotel Prague,” Ikea said in a press release. About 1,000 visitors go through Ikea Point every day, which Ikea planned as a success. They would, however, welcome the extension of the services as well as the dispensing point for the e-shop and the sale of...

Artists Decorate Prague's Lennon Wall With Pictures of "Love and Peace"

About two dozens of Czech and foreign artists decorated the famous Lennon Wall with new pictures and inscriptions of “love and peace”. John Lennon’s wall in Prague is a popular destination for tourists and a symbolic site of Czech opposition to the communist regime Since the 1980s, it has been filled with John Lennon-inspired graffiti and pieces of lyrics from Beatles’ songs. In the past years, it has become one of the most popular tourist attractions in Prague and was seen as a symbol of global ideas such as “love and peace”. The leading figure behind the project was Pavel Šťastný, the man who created the famous logo of the Civic Forum during the Velvet Revolution. “For 60 years already, Lennon’s wall is a symbol of freedom in the Czech Republic. We are just starting our celebrations of 30 Years of Freedom and we wanted to give the wall a new face because it is not just a Czech symbol, but also one that is also an international.“ The artwork, namely “Meet Art”, was co-created by artists from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Serbia, Canada and Sultanate of Oman. Some tourists contributed, too. They painted the entire wall with one of the motifs...

Kulový Blesk – One of the Beer Paradises

Beer, beer, beer…I know many pubs serve a nice beer. But there are only a few pubs in Prague that specialize in offering a wide variety of local Czech beers, all on tap, not only in bottles, and one of them is Kulový Blesk. In pubs like it, just to explain, they offer around 10 to 20 beers on tap, usually from different small- or micro-breweries, often more types of beer from one brewery. In such a pub the beers are always of the best quality and the choice changes every day. My humble opinion on the quality is developed by my several years of experience with beer. Kulovy blesk is not on the nicest spot, because it is blocked with the ‘Prague highway’ Sokolska. It offers a nice underground space decorated with posters of famous Czech movies. Actually, the name of the pub refers to the popular movie ‘Kulovy blesk‘ directed by Ladislav Smoljak and Zdenek Sverak. Apart from the beer, which usually satisfies me completely, you can enjoy pure Czech cuisine, including many nice starters (some bites for the beer) and large meals for meat lovers (burgers, chicken wings, ribs). Important note – if you want to enjoy an evening in this pub, call and make...

Bastion – View From a Fort

Unlike Vyšehrad and its impressive fortification, which is on almost every tourist’s to-do list, Bastion is a gem hidden not only from Prague’s first-time visitors but also from many locals. Originally built during the times of Charles IV, the wall created a defense perimeter in order to protect the medieval city from any threat that loomed outside. Once it lost its purpose, Bastion, which lies at the opposing end of Nuselský bridge from Vyšehrad and can be accessed via Horská st. or down from Folimanka park, has been neglected for generations. Recently, however, Prague commissioned a revitalization of the former fortification, tearing down the leftovers from the derelict 19th-century building, erecting a new structure which currently serves as a rather fancy restaurant, and turning the rest of the fortification into a park with benches. In my opinion, Bastion serves as a great example of how to elegantly revamp and utilize public spaces in a city. A tasteful combination of corroded steel, stone bricks, and a green lawn blend perfectly, subtly incorporating the park into its local surroundings. With an amazing view of Vyšehrad, this is a great destination for a walk, and I personally love going there simply to sit...

Prague Wants to Ban Beer Bike From City Centre

Praguers are complaining about the beer bikes, special vehicles driving through the historical centre with tapped beer served aboard up to 15 people who are “cycling,” and the City Hall is considering banning this. According to Jan Wolf of City Council, “at the moment, one of the possible solutions seems to me to ban this mode of operation in places where there is a ban on alcohol consumption in public areas. This solution would be accompanied by a simple enforcement by the Municipal Police”.  Now Prague 1 has support from Prague City Hall and it has also responded positively to a proposal to deal with “visual smog” as Prague 1 calls the various Disneyland characters wandering around Old Town Square. Prague Councilor for Culture Helena Třeštíková said on Tuesday that City Hall is preparing a directive which would curb these commercial attractions in the center of Prague.  Marek Beneš, Deputy Chairman of Prague 1, agrees with the restriction of beer wheels. “This type of business is completely contrary to the interests of the population, the historical tradition and the spirit of old Prague,” he said. He added that similar issues should be addressed conceptually and therefore proposes the creation of a...

Petřín Tower to Wear Green for St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated for the entire weekend in Prague. This is because every year, more and more expats & locals are loving and supporting the traditional celebrations that make up St. Patrick’s day. Now there aren’t a lot of Irish people in Prague, and St. Patrick’s Day really has nothing to do with Czech’s, but Czechs love a good party and partying in green for St. Patty’s is something to warm up the chilly weather. As with other notable structures around the world celebrating this holiday, the Petřín Viewing Tower, also known as the Little Eiffel Tower, will be lit in green on the holiday. Petřín’s new illumination for these events has been approved by city councilors, and could open the doors for the tower to sport some more colors in the future. However, not everyone agrees with the lighting. The Prague Conservation Reserve issued a statement asserting that the illumination should only be granted for national holidays and “extraordinarily” important days. One traditional symbol of Saint Patrick’s Day is the Shamrock. “Shamrock” is the common name for several different kinds of three-leafed clovers native to Ireland. The shamrock was chosen Ireland’s national emblem because of the legend that St. Patrick had used...

Prague Airport is Among Europe’s Top Three

Václav Havel Airport in Prague has been named as one of the best three airports in Europe at the Airport Service Quality Awards. The airports at Athens and Helsinki shared the prize with Prague as the best airport in the 15 million to 25 million annual passenger category. According to a survey by polling firm Median, 97 per cent of passengers consider the airport to be either ‘very good’ or ‘rather good.’ The awards are based on 640,000 passenger survey results in 84 countries. The Airport Service Quality (ASQ) programme is the world’s leading airport passenger service and benchmarking programme. The ASQ Departures programme measures passengers’ satisfaction across 34 key performance indicators. Three-quarters of the world’s 100 busiest airports are part of the ASQ programme which means that, in 2018, more than half of the world’s 8.3 billion travellers passed through an ASQ airport. A range of new award categories, recognising excellence in segments of the customer experience announced earlier this year, have produced a diverse group of winners, illustrating the commitment to the customer experience of airports around the world.

Liftago Starts Package Delivery Service in Prague

Firstly the transport of people, then meals and finally packages. Modern transport services that want to make full use of their drivers and give them the possibility of additional income opens up entirely new possibilities for urban transport. Taxis and other alternative services will be used for passengers and to take the food from the restaurant to the customer. Czech Liftago launches its cooperation with Zásilkovna and therefore also with all the e-shops that are offered by standard delivery to one of the Zásilkovna branches. In practice, when completing a purchase, the customer can choose express delivery from the shipping options and then enters a request for one of the Liftago drivers in the vicinity that picks up the package and delivers it to the customer along the way. This can fill the time while waiting for other passengers or just extend the normal rides. Like express delivery from online supermarkets, the service will obviously cost more than traditional delivery to the store. However, over time, it can not only be cost-effective but also involve other partners. “We see our offer of services as a digital logistics platform with a wide range of logistics solutions, and the new delivery model...
