    • @gretetheaustrianguide
      @gretetheaustrianguide  Před 2 lety +4

      Hi there! You can book the ticket online in advance for the öbb train. But it is not necessary. And honestly I would not recommend it, since sometimes the planes are delayed or it takes longer to pick up the luggage. -So it could happen that you miss the train you booked the ticket for. I would just buy the tickets at the vending machines and take the next train :) If you plan to go to Vienna you can also check out the Videos on my other channel.

    Be careful when buying a ticket for the Schnellbahn S7. I went to Vienna last week. I ticked the senior ticket as I am 66. I was told by a ticket inspector that I had the wrong ticket. I apparently should have had a Vorteilscard. Which I wouldn't have known about as it was my first visit to Vienna. I got fined 105 euros. The inspector wasn't interested that it was accidental. The only place I saw an inspector was on the journey to Vienna and at the end of my holiday back to the airport. I feel there is an element of catching the tourist here. On the way back to the airport there were 3 German speaking guys who had the wrong ticket. The inspector didn't fine them but told them to get off at the next station. Be warned. Lovely city though!

  • @WrldVoyagr

    It would be helpful to highlight the further price advantage of S7/ÖBB over the CAT in that the ticket allows further connections within the Vienna zone on metro, tram and bus. For CAT you would need an additional ticket.

      A single ticket for two zones (Airport-Schwechat is the outer tariff zone, from Schwechat everything is the Vienna city zone) is valid for one trip in one direction, including changes (but not going backwards or in circles).
      You can even mix a single-trip (to get into the city) and eg. 24-hour ticket (within the city); there should be options on the ticket machines if I remember correctly. (Else: just get single ticket to "Schwechat" and an eg. 24h for the city zone.)

    • @gretetheaustrianguide
      @gretetheaustrianguide  Před 9 měsíci +1

      This is a bit complicated: The airport is outside of vienna. If you take the S7 you obviously have to pay for the full distance. If you already have a ticket or travel pass for Vienna you only have to pay for the small part of the route, that is outside of vienna. At the ticket vending machine you can select the option, that you already have a ticket for Vienna. This will reduce the price for the ticket to (or from) the airport.

    It should be added that if you have the Wiener Linien all-day ticket (which can be purchased online or at the airport at the ÖBB desk, and which is valid on all public transport services in Vienna), a ticket for the Schnellbahn is even cheaper, less than €2, up to the first station within Vienna, Wien Kaiserebersdorf - payment for the rest of the route is included in the Wiener Linien all-day ticket.

    Hi Grete, your video has cleared many doubts, thanks for that! Now I want to know, if I have the Vienna City Card does it include my travel from airport to airbnd (knollgasse/davidgasse) via tram ?

      Hi! It depends, which city card you bought and also which option. There ist an additional option for the airport transfer (22 EUR) if you choose the "Vienna City Card"

    Good tips. 1 question, does the Vienna Card allow you to use these airport trains for free?
