Pardubice Airport is a hidden gem in the heart of East Bohemia for travellers looking to escape the hustle and bustle of Prague’s main airport. Just an hour’s train ride from the capital, this small but mighty airport offers a unique blend of history, convenience, and charm.

A Journey Through Time

Pardubice Airport’s roots stretch back to 1910 when Czech aviation pioneer Jan Kaspar took his first flight from these grounds. Today, the airport honours its rich history while embracing modern amenities. The new terminal, opened in 2017, bears Kaspar’s name and welcomes visitors with a mix of old-world charm and new-age efficiency.
