For whom is public transport free in Prague?
Public transport: If you are over 65 or have a child under 15, you can use the tram, metro and bus free of charge. However, you must be able to show a document with your age and photo at the ticket inspection, e.g. a student ID card, passport or identity card. Children under the age of 10 do not need an ID card.
