There are a number of airports in the Czech Republic. However, not all Czech airports have regularly scheduled flights. We do not list the smallest Czech airports, since there is no way to provide you flights from those airports. AirGorilla offers flights, hotels, and rental car reservations for Czech cities.
The Czech Republic (Czech: Ceska republika) is a landlocked country in Central Europe and a member state of the European Union. It is one of the most stable and prosperous of the post-Communist states. The country has borders with Poland to the north, Germany to the northwest and west, Austria to the south, and Slovakia to the east. The historic city of Prague (Czech: Praha) is its capital and largest city. The country is composed of two entire historic regions, Bohemia and Moravia, parts of Silesia and small sections of historic Lower Austria.
The Czech landscape is quite varied; Bohemia to the west consists of a basin, drained by the Elbe (Labe) and Vltava rivers, surrounded by mostly low mountains such as the Sudeten with its part Krkonose, where one also finds the highest point in the country, the Snezka at 1,602 metres (5,256 ft). Moravia, the eastern part, is also quite hilly and is drained predominantly by the Morava river, but also contains the source of the Oder (Odra) river. Water from the Czech Republic flows to three different seas: the North Sea, Baltic Sea and Black Sea. The local climate is temperate with warm summers and cold, cloudy, humid winters, typified by a mixture of maritime and continental influences.
There are several centres of tourist activity: The historic city of Prague is the primary tourist attraction, and the city is also the most common point of entry for tourists visiting other parts of the country. Most other cities in the country attract significant numbers of tourists, but the spa towns such as Karlovy Vary and Marianske Lazne are particularly popular holiday destinations. Other popular tourist sites are the many castles and chateaux, such as those at Karlstejn, Konopiste and Cesky Krumlov. Away from the towns, areas as Cesky Raj, Sumava and the Krkonose mountains attract visitors seeking outdoor pursuits.
In November 1989, Czechoslovakia regained its political independence from the Soviet-dominated Eastern Bloc or Warsaw Pact through a peaceful "Velvet Revolution". On January 1, 1993, the country peacefully split in two, creating the independent Czech and Slovak republics. The Czech Republic joined NATO in 1999 and the European Union on May 1, 2004. From 1991 the Czech Republic, then Czechoslovakia, has been a member of the Visegrad Group. ( )
