České Budějovice Airport
Planá, Czech Republic
České Budějovice Airport (Letiště České Budějovice) (ICAO: LKCS, IATA: JCL) is a domestic and international airport in the Czech Republic, operated by South Bohemian Airport České Budějovice a.s., owned by the South Bohemian Region. It is 6 km from the centre of České Budějovice, in the direction of Český Krumlov. Modernization to the public international airport was completed in August 2023, when it launched its first international connection. The company South Bohemian Airport České Budějovice holds the license for non-public international traffic. It is authorized to receive and dispatch medium-sized aircraft up to a wingspan of 36 meters. Due to lack of equipment, the airport cannot accept flights in bad weather; aircraft can land only in daylight and in good visibility (VFR). In addition, flights requiring customs clearance and the presence of customs and immigration services must register 24 hours in advance. At present, the airport is most used for sports and limited commercial flights; regular airport clients are firms with business interests in southern Bohemia.
