ATM at Prague Airport
 
Hello all,

grateful if you all can advice on the location of ATMs at Prague airport. It's not easy to exchange for czech currency in my country, hence thinking of drawing the cash when I arrive at the airport. Please advice whether this is feasible. Or can I purchase tram tickets using euros? Thank you very much!

I remember an ATM located right next to the exit where the taxis are located.

Hi,

I withdrew Czech Crowns from an ATM near the exit, which Carta_Pisana mentioned.

In fact I did not use Czech Crowns before I reached centre of the town, cause I purchased 3-day tickets at Cedok airport branch via credit card, taking 119 public bus to Dejvicka metro station. Public bus at the airport accepted 3-day ticket.

Thanks so much for the fast replies! Feeling more assured now. Yes someone actually told me I can also use credit card to buy just a 12 crowns ticket! Is this true? Thanks!

12 crowns is about 65 Canadian cents -- if my reference to another equally obscure world currency tells you anything...why use a credit card?

There is a bank of competing banks' ATMs -- for bank cards, credit cards and debit cards, in the main hall right by the info counter, as you come out of customs/ immigration at the airport

We used the ATM of CSOB, a large local bank.

ATMS are available on main tourist streets -- though not as abundant as in western cities.

Thanks Tedgale!

I will use the ATM for sure! I am sure curious....at the fact the machine will actually allow one to pay for a 12crown ticket with a credit card!
