I messed up - help needed getting from Prague to Florence

You could fly to Venice and then take the train from there to Florence the next day. There are some other options in Italy, also. Or you could add a day to Florence and fly there with a stop in between.

While it is true that there are no direct flights, there are flights with one transfer that take less than 3 hours in total. Eg. Lufthansa via Munich. What is the problem with that?

Regarding train travel, what are you using for planning?

There is a day time connection that takes about 14 hours. Leave in the Morning, via Munich, and. there also a night train via Vienna and Bologna.

So you see there are some options. Have a look at www.bahn.de for schedules. Have a look at www.seat61.com to learn how to book this.

What websites are you using for your train tickets and your flight information?

Hi Emily,

Rome2Rio was the main site I was using.

I've found another train option thanks to an answer above.

You really should only use the websites of the companies that operate the trains. Otherwise, you risk getting bad information and paying exorbitant prices. Have you looked at this article from the esteemed Man in Seat 61 - https://www.seat61.com/international-trains/trains-from-Prague.htm#Prague-Italy

This link gives detailed instructions. Perhaps consider his option of overnighting in Venice.

The Pisa airport has more flights than Florence. There may be non-stops to Pisa. Another possibility is Bologna. It's a bit farther from Florence, but there are lots of fast trains between the two cities.

I use Skyscanner.com to search for European flights.

FYI, Bologne to Florence takes thirty minutes. They blasted tunnels through the mountains for the fast train. It’s faster than most people’s commutes.

From Prague to Florence is one of those routes that just doesn't exist.

You could take a Wizz Air flight into Venice and take a train from there. Or you could take a Ryanair flight into Treviso and take a 40 minute bus ride into Venice.

That's the best you can do without doing one or two connecting flights.

If you look at the Prague Airport wiki page, you can get an idea of the cities you can get to on non-stop flights.

For example, Ryanair flies to Pisa and Bologna. I’d start by checking those flights.
