After the opening of line 58, it is the turn of line 59. On Wednesday 6 March 2024 Prague trolleybus line 59 will be opened to the public, completely replacing line 119, which runs from the Veleslavín railway station to Prague Airport “Václav Havel”. The diesel buses will be replaced by the battery-powered Škoda-Solaris 24m trolleybuses.  The trolleybus will run as far as Terminal 3, while Terminal 1-2 will be reached in battery mode.

The first operating schedule is to run every 3 to 4 minutes until 7 p.m. when the frequency will change to 5 minutes, around 8 p.m. the runs will be every 8 minutes and 10 minutes after 9 p.m.

On 1 February 2024, car 405, the third of 20 double-articulated trolleybuses ordered by DPP Prague, was used for testing. Car 403 started passenger service on line 58 on the Palmovka-Turnovka route for the approval of the entire series.

The maxi-bus will accommodate up to 179 passengers, 52 of whom will be seated, and accessibility is ensured by five double doors
