Pilot Comments for LKPR
Alex
Bonanza A36 IFR. Rwy 06/24 was closed per NOTAM so the other runway got quite busy. The arrival and approach was straightforward with vectoring and good ATC communication. You get multiple radar frequency changes before handoff to tower. They asked to keep best speed until 6nm final (150kts in my case). Guide in with follow me car after leaving runway.
Parking is on the south apron near terminal 3 where the GAT is located. Handler drives you there (in our case CZ Airlines). Very friendly and uncomplicated.
The airport requires a slot for arrival and also departure which the handler organizes for you. Short term schedule changes (up to half an hour before in our case) was no problem.
You will have to ask startup and clearance at the earliest EOBT -15 min, at the latest +5 min.
Be ready to do a running takeoff immediately or very shortly when reaching the holding point. I did my engine runup on the parking stand since it was out in the middle of nowhere (stand S16) and I was alone there.
Departure is straightforward with vectors for separation and shortcuts.
Again very professional and friendly ATC all around.
Costs for 3 overnights incl. handling, 1 adult PAX, 1 infant:
289€.
GAT is very clean modern with a lounge with free beverages. Security check was quick. The handler himself has to be called, upon arrival or beforehand, at the GAT for your departure. He will let you through the lounge and security check. He drove me alone to the plane for the preflight and brought my family upon my request 20 min later to the plane for boarding. Nice for them to rest in the lounge and not in the sun (or rain) on the apron.
I recommend arriving 1h to 1,5h before EOBT at the GAT depending on how much preflight you need to do.

Speedy service from Czech Airlines Handling. Handler seemed new and he did explain he'd never handled a GA aircraft like this before, so he was very attentive. Managed to turn the aircraft around in an hour and clear customs. The new terminal building is efficient but very annoying to have to go through security after pointlessly walking out of the building to otherwise just walk back in.

Handling is mandatory at LKPR and must be arranged in advance, typically via Czech Airlines Handling, ABS Jets, or Menzies. Slots are required for both arrival and departure and are coordinated using GCR messages sent by email; the slot window is 120 minutes. Payment for all services is usually made at the aircraft, with credit cards accepted. ATC and handling staff are consistently described as professional, efficient, and friendly. IFR and VFR arrivals are both supported; VFR procedures require use of compulsory reporting points as published in the AIP. Radar vectors are common for IFR arrivals and departures, with occasional requests to use alternative runways or approaches.
Fees for landing, handling, and short-term parking typically range from about €150 to €220 for a single visit with a light aircraft; higher totals up to €400 have been reported for longer stays or additional services. Example: landing, handling, and parking about €220. Charges include various small surcharges such as slot coordination fees. Handling agents may quote different totals; Czech Airlines Handling is often less expensive than Menzies. Parking is generally on the south apron near Terminal 3 (the General Aviation Terminal), which has a café and cash machine.
Fuel (100LL and Jet A1) is available on request; payment directly to the fuel provider may be cheaper than via the handler. Shuttle transport between aircraft and terminal is provided by handlers. No tie-downs or small wheel chocks are available on the apron—only large airline chocks.
Transport to Prague city center is easy: taxis cost about €20–€25 per direction; Uber is available but may default to Terminals 1 or 2 unless specified carefully. Public transport options include bus lines 100 or 119 connecting to metro lines B or A respectively; total travel time to the city center ranges from 30–45 minutes, with tickets costing around €1–€2.
Customs and immigration are handled efficiently as part of the standard process; passports are required for non-Schengen arrivals. Security screening at Terminal 3 can involve minor delays or questions regarding crew identification.
The airport infrastructure is modern and well maintained, with long taxi distances between runways and GA parking areas. The Ramada hotel is located adjacent to Terminal 3 and receives positive remarks for convenience.
LKPR offers a high level of service suitable for non-commercial general aviation flights but at relatively high cost compared to smaller fields in the region. Procedures vary; see AIP/NOTAM.
