The business-class sold as C or D (discounted) to PRG is a bargain, you only need a Saturday night stay.
The have 3 rows of 2-3-2 seats in the front cabin and the service is fairly good, food is tasty as well, not gourmet. Remember, often you get what ypu pay for.
It takes 25,000 q miles to become Silver (OK, Skyteam). On long-haul Ok flights you can upgrade for 2,000 miles only, short haul is free.
The Crystal Lounge in PRG is really very and comfortable. I was there on New Year's Eve. I alwyas stop there with my Priority Pass before going across the hall to the Star Alliance Lounge whichis smaller but also very nice.
The airport is very user friendly with good duty-free shopping. Remember, Czech Rep. is now part of EU, so duty-free is a relative term.
Canadians can travel to PRG with a CAN passport, no visa required.
Thanks for the help.
The Business Class fares from YYZ to DXB are even more of a bargain - same price whether going to PRG or to DXB
The connections are better than AF/KL, LH and AZ
After 2 RTs I will be a Gold member, and the free long haul upgrades benefit seems amazing. I am a little skeptical about the success though. Only 3 rows of J, and lots of OK Silver members?
Cheers
