Worth knowing

Before you fly Austrian Airlines

Austrian Airlines flies via Vienna. A handy hub for connections to Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and the Middle East. Part of the Lufthansa Group, a Star Alliance member.

Vienna is a small, efficient airport — a 30–45 minute connection is realistic, but check if your route needs a Schengen / non-Schengen passport check.
