What PRG to GVA looks like
The PRG to GVA sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Prague PRG to Geneva GVA is a short sector of 741 km by great circle, flown nonstop about once a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 741 km, 720 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 1h 35m.
Prague PRG is a major hub in the network held here, 191 scheduled destinations and 251.7 departures a day. Geneva GVA has 159 destinations and 227.4 departures a day.
Prague and Geneva keep the same clock all year, so the arrival time is the departure time plus the block and nothing else.
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. 95 of them join PRG to GVA.
| Connecting at | PRG to hub, flights a day | Hub to GVA, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zurich ZRH | 4.86 | 9.43 | 741 | 3h 35m |
| Munich MUC | 4.57 | 2.57 | 753 | 3h 36m |
| Luxembourg City LUX | 0.71 | 1.43 | 956 | 3h 39m |
| Vienna VIE | 3.57 | 2.86 | 1,095 | 3h 43m |
| Frankfurt FRA | 9 | 4.71 | 866 | 3h 46m |
| Milan MXP | 1.86 | 0.71 | 859 | 3h 46m |
One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at PRG in the afternoon actually flies on.
95 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Zurich ZRH, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 4.9 times a day.
Through ZRH the routing covers 741 km against the 741 km nonstop track and takes about 3h 35m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 90 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 2h 00m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Munich MUC at 3h 36m and Luxembourg City LUX at 3h 39m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Prague, Leipzig LEJ is 205 km away by great circle and carries 85 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.
If nothing suitable leaves Geneva, Lyon LYS is 97 km away by great circle and carries 122 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.
Restricted hours at either end
Widely documented operating restrictions, checked 2026-09-07. Exemptions and seasonal variations exist, so confirm with the carrier before relying on any of them.
Geneva GVA is shut to scheduled movements between 00:00 and 06:00 local, which matters here because an aircraft leaving Prague late arrives into a closed airport rather than a quiet one.
Geneva GVA, night restrictions: No scheduled movements between midnight and 06:00 local.
Read back down the sector, a departure from Prague later than about 22:25 local arrives at GVA after it has closed for the night, on the 1h 35m block time above.

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 PRG to GVA 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.
