About this route
Route overview
The PRG -> BTS inter-airport route is the classic Czech to Slovak capital link: 340 km via the D1 to Brno, D2 across the Lanzhot border crossing to Bratislava, 3 h 30 min - 4 h off-peak. BTS serves Ryanair and Wizz Air across Europe; Vienna Schwechat (VIE) sits just 50 km from Bratislava with its Austrian Airlines hub to the US and Asia, which is why some clients pick BTS as a cheaper alternative to VIE with an overland leg into Vienna. The bottlenecks are the D1 around Brno (roadworks and heavy goods traffic) and the D2 during 7-9 and 16-19 peaks (up to 30 min added). The route is popular with CZ to SK business delegations (automotive, IT, finance) and multi-stop tourism. The service operates 24/7. We recommend a 3 hour buffer before a BTS departure. Mercedes E-Class from EUR 1,450 for 1-3 passengers, V-Class from EUR 1,750 for 4-6.
