HOW TO GET TO VIENNA AIRPORT BY PUBLIC TRANSPORT

To reach Vienna Airport by public transport, you can take the train or bus.

ÖBB’s Railjet high-speed trains operate hourly and take you from the airport to Wien Hauptbahnhof and Wien Meidling stations and vice versa. The travel time between the airport terminals and central Vienna is only 15 minutes.

ÖBB also offers direct connections between Vienna Airport and Austrian cities such as Linz, Salzburg, Innsbruck, and St. Pölten via Intercity Express trains.

Note that some airlines, including Austrian Airlines, offer tickets allowing free travel between the capital and the airport.

Bus

If you are looking for a more economical option than the City Airport Train, we recommend the Vienna Airport Lines or Postbus bus services. All of these arrive at Flughafen Wien Busterminal, the airport bus station located opposite Terminal 3.
