Record number of takes-offs, landings at Prague Airport

Prague Airport saw a record number of 521 take-offs and landings on Thursday, said a spokesperson. Last year the record number of flights was also recorded in June, though the number was 20 percent lower than that recorded on Thursday.

In related news, the Hungarian budget airline Wizz Air has opened a low-cost route between Budapest and Prague. It will fly between the two capitals four times a week.
