Czech airline Smartwings will launch a major expansion of its network at the start of the winter 2025/26 timetable.

From late October, the carrier plans to introduce seven new destinations from Prague and increase frequencies on some of its busiest existing routes.

The expansion begins on October 23, 2025, when the airline will add direct flights to Barcelona, Porto and Rome.

Barcelona will be served four times a week, giving travellers easy access to Catalonia for short breaks and longer holidays. Porto will operate twice weekly, while Rome will be available four times a week.

The following day Smartwings will add flights to Bilbao, connecting Prague with the Basque region twice a week.

On October 25 the airline will start services to Toulouse, a key city in southern France and home to Europe’s aerospace industry, also twice weekly.

The most substantial increase comes on October 26 with new daily flights to Bucharest and a heavy expansion on the Brussels route.

Smartwings will fly to the Belgian capital twelve times a week, making it one of the largest carriers on this connection and appealing both to business travellers and passengers heading to the European Union’s administrative centre.

Alongside the new destinations, the airline is increasing frequencies on several established routes. From October 27, Paris will be served three times daily, offering greater flexibility for passengers traveling to one of Europe’s busiest hubs.

Connections to Málaga will also rise, with up to twelve weekly flights ensuring regular access to Spain’s Costa del Sol.

In total, Smartwings will offer more than thirty direct routes from Prague during the winter season, including services to Madrid, Tel Aviv, Antalya, the Canary Islands, Madeira, the Azores, Hurghada and Marsa Alam.
