Incredible Deal on Flights to Prague

When I first visited Prague back in the early 1990s it still had a bit of that Eastern European feel to it. You could walk a few blocks away from the Charles Bridge and find a genuine communist cafeteria that served unidentifiable gruel for about 50 cents. It was kind of neat for westerners to experience life on the other side of the Iron Curtain in a city that is nothing short of beautiful.

Flash forward to today and you’ll have a hard time finding any evidence that Prague was once under the Soviet sphere. Seemingly every American who has ever dreamed of becoming a writer is there right now working on their first novel while they earn beer drinking money by being TEFL teachers. The old grungy charm has been replaced by a hip new attitude.

That isn’t to say that Prague is not worth visiting. It clearly is. The historic downtown is one of Europe’s jewels and a look at its famous castle should be high on anyone’s travel list. The prices have gone up, the crowds have poured in and the gruel is gone, but Prague is still very, very nice and when you can fly to Prague for cheap you should take advantage while you can.
