A total of 69 regular carriers have operated their flights from Václav Havel Airport Prague since the beginning of the year. Airbus A319 has been the most frequently used type of aircraft, having landed at the Prague’s airport over 13 thousand times this year. To board aircraft, passengers used most often the Terminal 2 D4 gate boarding bridge, designated for handling flights within the Schengen area.
The record 15 million handled passengers have also influenced Prague Airport’s non-aviation services. A total of 3.5 million cars used the express parking areas in front of both terminals at Václav Havel Airport Prague.
