You may may find plans of metro lines, trams and buses as well as plan your journey at www.dpp.cz/en, the Prague Transportation Company (DPP) website and the PID Lítačka App.
We recommend downloading the PID Lítačka App to buy tickets. You can buy single / short-term tickets in the app without creating an account.
In addittion to single / short-term tickets, there are long-term season tickets available that are more cost effective.
Students under 26 are eligible for a student discount on long-term season tickets after registering at Charles University.
We recommend creating your PID Lítačka account only after receiving your CU Student Card, as the name in the app must exactly match the name on your card.
Students aged 26 and over must pay the full price and can create an account before receiving their CU Student Card.
Single tickets are valid on all the metro, trams and buses with a possibility to change. In order to make them valid, you must date-stamp the ticket after boarding a bus, tram, or upon entering the metro.
Those can be bought either at ticket machines in the metro, at some of the bus / tram stops and at newsstands or online via the PID Lítačka App downloaded to your smart phone.
Please note that there is no student discount for single / short-term tickets.
