Dear All,
here is another trip report of mine. I have purchased tickets for this flight in March of this year when SkyEurope had a sale going on. Roundtrip for 2 people, including the taxes and baggage and credit card fee was approx 50 EUR. Me and my Gf have decided to go from Thrusday to Saturday in order to relax at home on Sunday after we get back before heading to work on Monday.
Since March, time has passed very quickly, and now was the end of June and time to go to Rome for short break.
We arrived to PRG airport around 11 am for our flight 12:30pm. Check in was breeze, took only 5 mins.
Please note, some of the pics are not great, appologies for the quality.
