Ryanair relaunches direct flights from Prague to Málaga

Low-cost airline Ryanair will restart its service between Prague and Málaga, Spain, starting on Oct. 30. Flights will take place three times a week at least until the end of the winter flight schedule. Tickets are already on sale. Ryanair also recently announced it would also launch service to Tirana, Albania, and Leicestershire, UK, at the end of October.

Ryanair canceled service to Málaga in March of last year without giving a reason. Rival air carriers Smartwings and Eurowings also offer direct flights to Málaga, while several other airlines have connections that require a change.

Ryanair will fly from Prague on Mondays, departing at 11:05 a.m. and arriving at 2:25 p.m., Thursdays departing at 2 p.m. and arriving at 5:20 p.m., and Saturdays departing at 10:10 a.m. and arriving at 1:30 p.m.

Málaga is the second-most populous city in the autonomous community of Andalusia and the sixth-most populous in the country. It has ruins going back to the Roman era and a museum with 285 works by Pablo Picasso, who was born in the city in 1881. The city also serves as a gateway to beach resort towns along Spain’s Costa del Sol, such as Torremolinos.

This is Ryaniar’s fifth Spanish destination from Prague. There are also direct flights to Barcelona, Madrid, Seville, and Majorca. Ryanair offers flights from Prague to over 30 destinations in Europe.

Smartwings will remain the main carrier from Prague to Málaga offering a daily connection. Eurowings flies four times a week, but when the winter flight schedule starts, they will drastically reduce service.

Ryaniar’s flights to Tirana will take place on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and flights to Leicestershire on Mondays and Thursdays.
