[citation needed] Among the major awards Prague Ruzyně Airport has received is the Diploma and Gold Medal granted in 1937 at the occasion of the International Art and Technical Exhibition in Paris [citation needed] (Exposition Internationale des Arts et Techniques dans la Vie Moderne also known as Paris 1937 World's Fair) for the technical conception of the central airport, primarily the architecture of the check-in building (nowadays known as Terminal 4) designed by architect Adolf Benš.

[7] Moreover, the Ruzyně fields provide opportunities for further expansion of the airport according to the increasing capacity demand.

[citation needed] Political and economic changes have significantly influenced Prague–Ruzyně Airport's seventy-year history.

Ten entities have been responsible for airport administration over time, including the new construction and development.

[8] An online petition organised by one of the best-known Slovak film directors, Fero Fenič, calling on the government and the Parliament to rename Prague Ruzyně Airport to Václav Havel International Airport attracted – in just one week after 20 December 2011—the support of over 65,000 signatories both within and outside the Czech Republic.

In addition, the approach path of runway 12/30 goes above high-density population areas (such as Prague 6 and Kladno).

[14][15] The construction of a railway connection between the airport and Prague city centre is also in the planning stage.

The track will be served by express trains with special fares, connecting the airport non-stop with the city centre, and local trains fully integrated into Prague integrated transit system.

Czech Airlines has its head office, the APC Building,[18] on the grounds of Prague Airport.

[19] On 30 December 2009 CSA announced that it would sell its head office to the airport for CZK 607 million.

[21][22] In addition the Civil Aviation Authority also has its head office on the airport property.

The company was founded in February 2008, as part of a privatisation process involving the Airport Prague (Správa Letiště Praha, s.p.)

A Czech Railways public bus service, AE – AirportExpress, connects Terminal 1 with Praha hlavní nádraží.

The project also includes double tracking and electrifying the existing single-track railway.
