When you arrive in Prague, choose the option according to the purpose: accommodation by the metro or a further train from the main station. These are different routes and ticket rules. Save the return terminal and the nearest station before comparing the cost of the entire trip.

59 to Nádraží Veleslavín
The airport lists trolleybus 59 from terminals 1 and 2 to Nádraží Veleslavín, where you change to metro A. This is a two-stage journey. Older guides may mention bus 119; check the current route and airport notices.
Airport Express to Main Station
Airport Express connects the airport to Praha hlavní nádraží. The airport lists departure from Terminal 1 and a stop at the station building on Wilsonova Street. This is not the same as every metro entrance or railway platform; allow time to reach your onward train.
A regular city ticket is not enough for AE
According to the airport, standard public transport tickets are not valid at Airport Express. For 59 with metro and for AE check separately the fare. If you are using an offer combined with a railway, check the terms of this product instead of buying an additional ticket without need.
Evening and further journey
On late landing, check the entire access chain, including further metro; the airport bus itself does not prove the availability of the last stop. On your day of return, choose the time of arrival at the appropriate terminal. The weekend schedule and event date should be compared with the accommodation before booking the flight.
