Direct Flights Between Prague and New York to Resume in May

Delta Air Lines will resume direct flights between Prague and New York (JFK), reconnecting the two cities for the summer season.

The service will begin on May 8, 2025, and continue until October 6, 2025.

Flights will operate daily, with the route served by a Boeing 767-300. The journey is expected to take approximately 9 hours and 25 minutes.

Tickets are already available, with one-way fares starting at 15,000 CZK for the basic fare.

This seasonal connection is expected to boost tourism and business travel between Czechia and the United States, offering passengers a convenient non-stop option.

Jiří Pos, chairman of the board at Prague Airport, expressed hope that the connection could become year-round. “Before the Covid crisis, over 70,000 passengers traveled between Prague and New York annually, which suggested strong potential for a permanent direct route to the Czech capital,” he said in 2022.

However, that plan did not come to fruition.

Despite this, Prague Airport remains committed to securing more long-haul connections. “Expanding North American and Asian routes is a key priority, and we have been negotiating with airlines for some time,” said Jaroslav Procházka from Prague Airport.
