The Polish carrier LOT is introducing “pandemic” flights between Prague and Ostrava

“LOT Polish Airlines is temporarily opening an air connection between Prague and Ostrava from Ostrava Airport. Residents of the region, companies and investors thus have the opportunity to use the connection to the whole of Europe via Warsaw, as well as a fast, convenient and from a pandemic point of view the safest connection to the capital, “said Ostrava Airport on the website. “The line will be launched on November 12 with a frequency of 5 times a week.
