Airport Taxi in Prague costs CZK 400–700 where residents buy it, and CZK 800–1500 in the parts of the city built around visitors. That is roughly 114% more at the top end, or about CZK 1100 lost on a single purchase if you happen to buy at the worst place on the worst street. These figures were last reviewed in August 2026.
Transport pricing in Prague splits cleanly between metered or ticketed fares and negotiated ones. Anything quoted verbally at a terminal, rank or arrivals hall is where the upper range comes from.
If you want one number to carry around Prague, use CZK 550. Paying up to CZK 700 is unremarkable. Once a quote crosses CZK 800, you are inside visitor pricing and it is worth walking on.
The practical takeaway for Prague is small and repeatable. Know that CZK 400–700 is normal, recognise CZK 800–1500 as the visitor rate, and decide deliberately rather than by default.
