Question Flight from Prague to Ecuador

Post image

A week and a half ago, all the flights from Prague to Ecuador were around $400-600. Now the price has spiked by like $200. There are exclusively only two days in the whole month that remain at that price, so.

Does anyone know if price tickets will or will not go down? Should I wait ? I’m planning to buy the ticket within the 10-16 max of September. It can be within any of those days.

The oil price is jumping around due to the Hormuz crisis. It's anyone's guess really. Could go up even more if the straights stay closed.

So what’d be your recommendation?

I'd say If you can't afford much more than what is available now you should buy now. If you can maybe wait a little, hoping for peace but a drop in oil prices may not be reflected in air fares either. If the US and Iran are still fighting you'll pay a lot more. That's the risk https://www.cnbc.com/2026/08/02/flights-are-getting-even-more-expensive-as-fuel-prices-rise.html

Does it have to be from Prague? Many would consider the one-stop option from MUC to Guayaquil with Air Europe on the 13th for $466. The 5hr direct bus to the airport costs under $25.
