Thank you for your report. My wife and I leave for Prague in May via Czech Air and we were wondering what the airline was like. Why did you use tour guides in Prague rather than using a tourguide book to review as you walked around Prague.

When I travel with family (including 2 teens on this last trip), and sometimes even by myself, I find that a general orientation walking tour in a new place can be very helpful for setting the stage, giving us a brief history of notable places, and introducing us to some local viewpoints that a book will not have. We are all history buffs, so we love detail, and the tour sometimes sparks our interest to go back with a book and investigate something further on our own.

It is an absolute tragedy that Elaine no longer posts here. She was chased away by evil.

Czech Air: We flew from Amsterdam to Prague on Czech Air in November. Couldn't believe how tightly packed in we were. Tightest seating I've ever encountered on a commercial flight. The prepackaged sandwiches they handed out were dreadful.

But it was a short flight and the cabin crew members were nice, so it was no big deal.

Oh, well, I guess my prior message is a bit late for that 2004 trip1

Yes, positively dreadful salami sandwiches on Czech Airlines. BLECH! Thankfully, we only flew them from Prague to Frankfurt. The planes were old and dirty.
