The taxi stand at the Vienna Airport is in front of the Arrival/Departure Hall. Taxis can be very expensive (about 45 Euros), but if you ask at a taxi stand in the Arrival Hall you can get a taxi for around 35 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.: coolcab.at or flughafen-taxi-wien.at and to be in time :-).
