Hello. I have to get a last min ticket from prague to london. Which airlines do you all recommend? And is the cost a big difference when you get it in last minute? Thanks.
My usual favourite is EasyJet, and they offer flights from Prague to both Stansted and Gatwick. Normally the cost is higher for those that buy at the last minute, but that tends to depend on how full the flight is. In any case, if you need the flight I'd suggest booking as SOON as possible. Be sure to read their Terms & Conditions, especially related to luggage rules. Note that they usually only allow ONE carry-on item per passenger of the approved size, so you'll likely have to check at least one bag.
EasyJet now offers online check-in so you can print your boarding pass in advance. They don't have desk staff at many airports now, but rather just a bag drop. However, if they do have desk staff at Prague Airport, as I recall they may not appear until a short time before the flight leaves (at least that's what I found last time I flew out of there).
Thanks so much. !! If the price is too high, i might take the train. Thanks!!
Eurostar tickets at the last minute will be very high, plus you will have all the fallout from the French train strike even if you go through Brussels.
How last minute is last minute, swt? Tomorrow or next week?
To find all your flight options, use Skyscanner: http://www.skyscanner.com/. Be sure to search for flights from PRG (Prague airport) to LON (London all airports).
If the one way fares are too high, you can buy a round trip ticket and just not use the second half (but you have to use the first half, or they'll void the second half).
Second recommendation for Easyjet. Used them multiple times now with good results. They even checked my bag for free on my last flight (I didn't think I'd need to check one when booking and ended up checking at the gate). Not saying this is the norm at all, but I was certainly pleasantly surprised.
