Ground transfers

Transport rule

Walk under 15 min → walk
Else rideshare under €20 and meaningfully faster than PT → rideshare
Else → public transport

Applied to this trip

Leg	Rule	Plan
Home ↔ MUC	#3 (taxi €70+ fails rule #2)	U1 → U6 → LH Express Bus (~1 h)
PRN ↔ Hotel Sirius	#2 (Bolt €10, rule wins)	Bolt (~30 min)
Hotel ↔ KODE Labs	#1 (10 min walk)	Walk

Airport rideshare cheatsheet

MUC: Uber + Bolt both have official pickup zones at T1 and T2. Follow "Ride App Pick Up" signs. Pre-book up to 90 days ahead (Uber Reserve / Bolt scheduled).

PRN: Bolt only (no Uber in Kosovo). No formal designated zone — request on-demand from arrivals curb after landing. Pre-booking supported in app but less reliable; on 01 May (holiday) ask hotel reception the night before to pre-book a backup taxi.

Pristina · local basics

Currency · Euro (€)

Kosovo uses the Euro (official).
Cards (Visa/Mastercard) widely accepted in hotels, mid/upscale restaurants, shopping malls.
Carry €50–100 cash for small cafés, taxis, Bolt tips, 1A bus fallback.
ATMs: Visa/Mastercard/Maestro OK. Many charge a €3–5 convenience fee. Always decline conversion (your bank's FX is better).

Visa · German passport / ID card

Visa-free for 90 days in any 6-month period. Biometric ID card also accepted in lieu of passport. Bring whichever is longer-valid.

Connectivity

Strong 4G across Pristina (IPKO, Vala). Your Revolut eSIM (1GLOBAL) covers Kosovo. Speeds 10–30 Mbps typical. Activate ahead of departure.

Etiquette · tipping · safety

Tipping: 5–10 % in restaurants/cafés, round up taxis, small amounts for hotel staff.
Greeting: handshake; use title + last name until invited otherwise.
Basic Albanian: Përshëndetje (hello), Faleminderit (thank you), Gëzohem (pleased to meet you).
Topics to avoid: Kosovo–Serbia politics unless your hosts open it.
Safety: Pristina is generally safe. Standard big-city precautions. Avoid demonstrations (can spring up fast; 01 May likely has a labour demo).
Coffee: Turkish/macchiato culture is core. Long conversations over single cups — don't rush.
