What DUB to PRG looks like
The DUB to PRG sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Dublin DUB to Prague PRG is a medium haul sector of 1,455 km by great circle, flown nonstop about twice a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 1,455 km, 830 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 2h 21m.
Dublin DUB is a major hub in the network held here, 198 scheduled destinations and 462.1 departures a day. Prague PRG has 191 destinations and 251.7 departures a day.
Prague is one hour ahead of Dublin all year.
The pair sits inside Europe, a corridor where the site already publishes 14 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.

When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 100 of them join DUB to PRG.
| Connecting at | DUB to hub, flights a day | Hub to PRG, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dusseldorf DUS | 3 | 2 | 1,459 | 4h 13m |
| London LTN | 5.43 | 1.86 | 1,475 | 4h 13m |
| Cologne CGN | 1 | 0.71 | 1,467 | 4h 13m |
| Bristol BRS | 9.86 | 1.71 | 1,531 | 4h 16m |
| Luxembourg City LUX | 1.29 | 0.71 | 1,538 | 4h 19m |
| Manchester MAN | 22.14 | 2.43 | 1,457 | 4h 24m |
One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at DUB in the afternoon actually flies on.
100 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Dusseldorf DUS, where the weaker of the two legs still runs about twice a day.
Through DUS the routing covers 1,459 km against the 1,455 km nonstop track and takes about 4h 13m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 75 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 52m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, London LTN at 4h 13m and Cologne CGN at 4h 13m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.

Restrictions
Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for DUB to PRG in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
