To some extent, all of us are athletes: Prague Airport takes part in support of Czech athletes in South Korea

A gold medal journey often starts at the airport. Therefore, Václav Havel Airport Prague joined those who support Czech athletes in South Korea and created a series of three viral videos linked to the theme of airport jobs. This way the videos also work as a reminder of an important work of airport staff who 24/7 takes care of the operation at the largest airport in the Czech Republic. The video production is also a “thank you” for their effort which led to the last year´s Václav Havel Airport Prague record of almost 15.5 million handled passengers.

Short videos made in cooperation with the RB Production are intended particularly for communication on Prague Airport social media. “To many people, the airport is a symbol of a new phase in their life, experience or accomplished goal. This also applies to Czech athletes who travel via our airport regularly when leaving the Czech Republic to represent it abroad. “In new videos, we want to express our support of Czech athletes as well as to thank our employees without whom the operation of the largest Czech airport would not be possible,“ says Jakub Puchalský, Marketing Director of Prague Airport.

The Prague Airport company (Letiste Praha) employs more than 1,700 employees and additional more than 14,000 people are employed by companies operating at the airport or companies connected to its operation. This year, Prague Airport and the other companies within Czech Aeroholding Group (Skupina Český aeroholding) are planning to employ additional up to 250 job applicants.

“We believe that new videos which are already available on Prague Airport social networks will not only grab people´s attention, but hopefully will bring our airport even closer to the general public,“ adds Jakub Puchalský.
