2 hours clears the 60-minute international minimum connection time at Ruzyne, but you should still head directly to your gate. Terminals 1 and 2 are physically joined by an internal connecting corridor that passengers can walk in about 10-15 minutes, with passport control checkpoints for Schengen/non-Schengen transfers. There is no train or bus required between terminals, but security re-screening applies when moving from landside connections or arriving from certain non-EU flights into the Schengen zone.

What happens if I miss my connection at PRG?
If you miss your connection, proceed to the Smartwings or your operating airline's transfer desk in the relevant terminal, as Prague's small size means staff can often rebook quickly onto the next available flight or a partner carrier.
