I bought two flight tickets (two way) from my home country to Prague/Czech Republic as I was pretty sure I would get the visa when I applied for it. But I failed to have the Czech embassy set a time for the application process because of the high season, busy time and whatnot.

Now as I can't plan my trip as desired, I'd like to know whether there is a way to make use of the tickets. Is it possible to get the visa from another country in the Schengen area, then buy a flight ticket from Prague to that country? Or do the flights have to be connected?

You don't even have to buy other tickets. If you can get another Schengen country to issue you a visa in time, you can fly to Prague. AFAIK, you don't have to enter the Schengen area through the country that issued the visa. I understand that the main restriction/rule is spending the larger part of your time in Schengen in that country. But I am not sure how that is enforced.

But of course if the Czech Republic's swamped with visa applications, it might be a sign that all the embassies in your country are too...
