  Departure from the airport every 30 minutes, travel time 24 minutes to station "Wien Mitte" (about 9 stations), change to the underground/subway (U-Bahn) U4 (take the elevator down, the underground station is called "Landstrasse") and continue in direction "Hütteldorf" for two stations, get off at "Karlsplatz".
  The single ticket for the suburban railway from the airport and one direction within Vienna costs € 4,40. The ticket vending machine is located on the platform at the airport.

Taxis can be very expensive (about 45-50 Euros), but if you ask at a taxi stand in the Arrival Hall you can get a taxi for about 40-45 Euros. We do not recommend to order taxis at the arrival in advance as you might have to pay for the waiting time in case of a delay of the flight. In case you want to take a taxi from the hotel to the airport we suggest to order a taxi in advance (we suggest to make it 12 hours or more in advance), see e.g.: or flughafen-taxi-wien.at and to be in time :-).

You can also search for directions on the following webpages:

  This is the company for public transport in Vienna. At the search form you have to enter "Flughafen Wien" for the Vienna Airport. Then you can find several ways to your hotel (hotel's address), find our department ("Wiedner Hauptstrasse 8-10" or "Karlsplatz") or any other address.
