Prague Airport Awarded the Best Airlines of Last Year

For the third time, Prague Airport has recognized the best airlines for the past year.

The most developing carrier was Ryanair. The Best Performing Airline in terms of traffic was Finnair. The title of the most sustainable carrier was awarded to easyJet.

British Airways received the award for the best marketing campaign in cooperation with Prague Airport. Compared to last year, a new award category has been added, concretely it is the Most Developing Cargo Carrier. This title was presented to Korean Air.

The fastest-growing and most efficient airlines

The award recognising the greatest year-on-year increase in passenger numbers, “Fastest Growing Airline at Prague Airport 2023”, was presented by Prague Airport to the air carrier that achieved the highest year-on-year increase in the total number of transported passengers compared to 2022, and thus contributed the most to the development of flight connections at Václav Havel Airport Prague. The award was presented to Ryanair, the Irish low-cost carrier.

The title of the most efficient carrier in terms of traffic, “Best Performing Airline at Prague Airport 2023”, factors in the key operational indicators, alongside the volume performance of carriers. Only carriers that completed at least 100 aircraft movements from July to December last year were evaluated. This corresponds to traffic of about two flights per week. Finnish carrier Finnair won the title as in the previous year.

Top Sustainable Airline

The “Top Sustainable Airline at Prague Airport 2023” category has three criteria for evaluation: noise and emissions of aircraft operating at Václav Havel Airport Prague and the airlines’ overall approach, commitment, and activities in the area of sustainability.

“We are delighted to once again be recognised by Václav Havel Airport as a leader in sustainability. We are working tirelessly to reduce the impact of our operations and, while there is considerable work to be done, we are making progress every day. Decarbonising the aviation sector will be a significant challenge, but we are seeing a lot of commitment and enthusiasm from across the aviation sector,” said Jane Ashton, Director of Sustainability at easyJet.
