Aelia Duty Free sits just past security in Terminal 2
You hit Aelia Duty Free right after T2 security, before the Schengen gates, so you pretty much walk through it on the way to boarding. Shelves lean hard on Czech staples like Becherovka and Bohemia Sekt alongside the usual big-brand spirits. Expect 1L bottles of mainstream liquor in the €16–€30 range, often with promo twin-packs stacked near the aisle.
Cosmetics and skincare take up a big chunk of floor space, with Chanel, Dior, and Estée Lauder counters lined up near the central walkway in Terminal 2. Perfumes usually run 10–20% under downtown list price, with regular 2-for deals on mid-range brands. If you forgot basics like toothpaste or deodorant, you’ll find travel sizes under €5 near the tills.
The shop also pushes local souvenirs: Karlovy Vary spa wafers, Orion chocolate bars, and Czech beer multipacks in T2-branded bags. Most food gifts sit in the €4–€15 band, with bigger liquor-and-chocolate sets closer to €25–€35. There’s a small kids’ corner with LEGO boxes and plush airport toys, useful if you’re killing 20–30 minutes before boarding.
Payment is easy: cards and contactless accepted, with prices shown in CZK and a rough euro conversion on the shelf labels in T2. Staff often steer you toward "travel exclusive" bottle sizes, so check unit prices before saying yes. If your time is tight, skip the back aisles and hit the first two lanes on the right; that’s where the higher-value promos usually sit.
