How to get to Brno from the Prague airport:
- There are also good busconnections between Prague airport and Brno, which depart every hour. We recommend the Czech Airlines direct bus line or a bus of Regiojet bus. To book a place in a Czech Airlines bus, go to the information desk at the Prague airport. With Regiojet, you may have to change busses at Praha-Florenc station, but your journey will continue with the same company.
