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!
Thank you for this helpful addition to the video! Discounts can indeed be tricky to navigate. There is more information on the ÖBB website about the discounts they offer (Information in English): www.oebb.at/en/tickets-kundenkarten
This took so much stress out of me as I will be travelling alone abroad for the first time and I have to switch at least 3 stops! Thank you for the detailed information!
Thank you so much, that's how tourist guides shall be done, nicely explained step by step, I found it so helpful that feel no longer puzzled about how to take my transport to Vienna. Great job ;)
I love how detailed you explained all the options, you even included where to get to the ticket machines at the airport, and instructions on OBB. as well as visual maps with those options! It may seen like a small thing but definitely make me feel a bit more prepared for my trip, Danke Shoen!
I am arriving in a few days and have been looking up how to get to the city centre and saw there were several options and I was struggling to find which one was best for me! (And decently priced) The overview you added in your video was also very helpful. Appreciate you making this video. Thank you very much 😊
Great step by step video. Very well explained. Thank you for taking the time to do it and I hope that there aren't major changes for the last two years.
I love the way you say OBB. I will be coming for the first time to Vienna in May from Malta. So this video has helped me out tremendously. Thank you so much 👍
First vid I came across 💙. Really helpful and explanatory indeed. I visit the City May 18nth. Glad seeing you describing with a sweet smile. I cannot wait ! Big 💙 from Greece 🇬🇷
We are leaving Vienna today. One thing I feel is left out of most of these videos is the S7 line as an add-on to any ‘all access’ tickets you may have bought. I believe if you have any 24hr + pass you can get an add on for just 2 euros one way! But you have to get it from the OBB app or machine or counter. You can’t buy even the full 4.80 S7 ticket from the WienMobil app. And the airport transfer add on the city card is way more. I had to have some help to figure out the add on/discount in the OBB app, I wouldn’t take the chance of picking the wrong discount - the OBB app is more confusing to use than the WienMobil app for tourists. But if you want the cheapest way and have already bought some kind of transport pass within Vienna I was told with the machines it is easier to use because in the right hand corner as you are purchasing your ticket there is a choice for ‘city limit’ of some kind and that will give you the correct discount.
@@gretetheaustrianguide well - it’s probably more complicated than most people want to attempt 😁. We just ubered from the airport since there were 4 of us. It’s not too expensive compared to many other cities in Europe when it is divided between more than 2 people.
Thank you for the tip🙏 I am going to Vienna next month for 6 days and I am planning to buy the 7 days card and have already the ÖBB app. I hope it won’t be confusing and hard to use and pay for the tickets with Apple Pay
Thank you Grete, this is very informative video about how to get into town from Vienna airport. As one of the comment says, this is a great example of how the travel video should be. Keep up the great work and I hope you get lots of subscribers.
Thank you for the detailed explanation. We’ll have 7-day transport pass, and based on my research, the s7 train will only be 2.10 euros. Can we purchase the s7 ticket in the app and apply the discount?
Excluded are airport buses, the Westbahn, and the City Airport Train (CAT). Within Vienna you can use all lines, such as buses, trams, underground (U-Bahn), Badner Bahn, ÖBB trains, and most regional bus lines. But take care: If you cross the city boarder you will have to pay extra for these lines (eg ÖBB & S7).
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.
So if I get the OBB train from the airport to the central railway station(for example) for 4.20 euro I can then take bus or metro with the same ticket?
@@М.М-х7ю Yes, if you stay within the city zone. The ticket has a time limit (I think 90 minutes). You can select your destination from the ÖBB ticket machine at the airport if you want to be absolutely sure about the price and validity.
@@М.М-х7ю Yes (albeit the price has increased to 4.40€ by now). 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.)
Thank you for the helpful video. If you take the S7 or the OBB and need to take a ubahn to the final desitnation will you need to pay again for the ubahn ticket? Thanks.
Awesome video! In July I will go from Vienna Airport with OBB Railjet to Linz. Do I need to buy tickets online early in advance or I can buy OBB Railjet ticket when I arrive at the airport? Will the OBB Railjet ticket price be more expensive in July when I arrive at the airport? Also how do I validate OBB Railjet tickets? Before I enter the train or the conductor will validate the ticket in the train? Thanks!
Hi Greta, thanks for the information!!! I will be going to Vienna next Saturday 20/04. Once I arrive at the airport, I’ll go to Vienna centre and so I’ll buy from a ticket machine OBB two tickets, one additional ticket for the borders of Vienna and one for 48 hours. Do I need to validate the 48 hours ticket or not? If yes, can I validate it at the airport station? Please let me know, thanks!!
Hello! Thank you very much for the information, i’m 17 years old and I’ll be flying at the end of march to Vienna solo and I would also like you to suggest me some places I can find stalls that sell cheap souvenirs like fridge magnets ☺️🇦🇹
Thanks! Super helpful to be explained things from a local instead of just Google Maps lol. Prices less egregious than Heathrow Express at least, €30 for a 10 min time saving💀
hello, I'm Toto from Indonesia. I really like this video, very helpful for people who are going to vienna. I have subscribed to your channel. In April I will ask you a lot of questions about transportation in Vienna. Don't ever feel bored if I ask later. thank you
Mam, kindly do advice, me please. Im landing at Vienna. Traveling to Budapest for two days, vienna for two days, Salzburg for two days, Hallstatt for one day and flying out of vienna on the 10th day. Should I buy a pass or something or buy tickets individually. Please advice
Danke Gretel. But if my flight is scheduled to arrive around 7:30 pm and I have a large case (luggage). Does the OBB have enough space to put my luggage? Or is it better the CAT ? After one of the trains I must take a taxi to drive me to the hotel. Or a taxi directly from the airport to the hotel? Considering all the costs Thanks for your suggestion
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. Greetings to Greta, the guide in my favourite tourist destination, an der schönen blauen Donau!
Hi! Thank you so much for your informative videos - they help al lot in preparing my upcoming visit to Vienna :) do I understand correctly that even if I buy a 72h ticket for Vienna for 17,10 euro, I still need to buy a separate ticket for S7 line if I need to travel from an airport. I see on a Streckenplan that the last 2 stations of S7 before a Flughafen station itself (starting from Schwechat) are marked as Eigener tarif, so I need this ticket for 4,2 euro anyway, right?
Yes, if you have the 72-hour ticket for Vienna, you'll still need to pay for the distance between the city border and Vienna Airport. When purchasing the ticket to the airport, select the option indicating that you already have a ticket for Vienna, and the fare will be deducted from the total price.
Hi, very good and well explained video. One question, on top of the 4,20 train ticket to Vienna center. Do we also need to buy/pay 1.90 for the city boarder? Thank you
The ticket will include the whole distance from Vienna Airport to your destination in the city. However, you will need an extra ticket, for Vienna, if you plan to do more trips in Vienna on that day.
Happy that you found the Video helpful! If you plan to go to Vienna you can also check out the Videos on my other channel. Its German but most videos (expecially the newer ones) have English subtitles! Channel name: is "Grete Walz" th-cam.com/users/gretewalz
Excellent, Grete! My family/I will visit Vienna 4/9/23 - 4/15/23 and we will stay with Hotel Am Schubertring located at Schubertring 11, 1010 Wien, Austria. Based on what I saw from your video, it seems that we can buy tickets to take S7 from the airport to Wien Mitte and walk for about 14 minutes to the hotel. May you kindly advise if this scenario would be effective? Many thanks!
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.
Thanks for sharing! Can you please tell me where and which tourist sim to buy at Vienna airport? I'm renting a car upon landing so no time to go into city.
There is a booth where you can buy a SIM card in the arrival area after you exited the luggage pick up (not sure which provider, though). But mobile communication in Austria is very cheap anyways and the coverage of all big providers are very good in Vienna aswell. So you will get very good value for your money no matter which SIM card you buy. Just make sure to ask for a "Wertkarte", which means "Prepaid SIM". Alternatively you could buy your SIM card at some supermarkets like LIDL or Hofer or at a telecommunication shop in the city center. All Major Brands have Shops at Kärtnerstraße or Mariahilferstraße (which is directly in the city center). Enjoy your time in vienna!
thx for the video we are family with 7 9 years kids at sunday we need to go to handelskai to breitensee will we buy tickets for the kids i plan to buy 72 hours tickests but i am confused
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"
Thanks for a very informative video! Can you please make one covering what to do / see during 1 day/night layover? Your pick on what to do/see in 1 day. We'll be traveling in the summer
Excellant video very detailed will be arriving on vieana ion the 6th of may gives great description of airport and express train.😄may opt for the lazy way Taxi will be flying in from Phoenix Arizona 12 hour flight proberly will choose quickest way to get to hotel
Hi. Thank you so much for this. Please make more like this, its very helpfull. Can you tell me, how to best go from hbf to the natural museum. I simply don’t get how to get the right tickets and lines. Will it make sense when we arrive? And also, is 2 hours there even enough. We are coming in by train at about 12.30, from Kufstein, and are flying from Vienna airport at 18.45, so not a lot of time unfortunately. We need to leave hbf at 17.12 I think. Then we have an hour and 15 to find he plane. We have prepaid for “pre check in”. We have 2 children with us, and I know they will love the museum, but if you have other recommendations it’ll look into that.
Hi! I recommend to search for the connections in google maps. I think its the easiest way to navigate in Vienna. There are different connections from Hauptbahnhof to Naturhistorisches Museum. But I would probably Tram Line D, which is a direct connection. Also your schedule is pretty tight. I think it can work but it will probably be a bit stressful.
Great video Grete, we are coming to Vienna in April via train from Budapest, will we be arriving at the Hauptbahnhof Wien? I’m pretty sure, my question is, one ticket non stop to the airport from our arrival point and do they have the same machines at Hauptbahnhof Wien? It was great to see your video at a time when I had this question, thank you 🙏
As far as I’ve seen, only one bus operates around the clock: the Vienna Airport Lines Bus 1 (VAL1), which connects the airport to Wien Westbahnhof train station. For more information, visit this website: www.viennaairportlines.at/en/informationen/unser-streckennetz
Hi. Is there one app that you recommend for me to use for all transportation for the three weeks that i plan to stay or do you think ill have to use multiple apps? Thanks!
Hi! If you only stay in Vienna, I can recommend the Wien Mobil App. In this app you can search for transportation and you can also purchase tickets for the public transport in Vienna. I also made a Video about this App. th-cam.com/video/DsUQeHBFtCA/w-d-xo.html Alternatively you could use Google Maps. Google Maps is also a good option, if you plan to travel outside of Vienna. Enjoy your time in Vienna!
hola siento hablarte en español. En varios dias voy a Viena . Me podrías indicar como llegar desde el centro de Viena o desde el distrito 2 zona hotel meininger downton Sisi al aeropuerto de viena en OBB , o desde la estación Central (wien Mitte), estoy un poco confundida , muchas gracias.
Hello, thank you very much for your explanations. I want to go to Westbahnhoff. How can I get there if I use S Bahn? Airport --> Wien Mitte --> ? --> Westbahnhoff and which transfer should I use? Thank you,
Thank you so much! very informative video and straight forward. Do you maybe have any recommendations to travel from Vienna Airport to Salzburg. I was looking into the OBB train, should I book the ticket before hand on their website? and I my flight should arrive at 9.30am and the train leaving at 10.30am, is there enough time ? Thank you!
Hi Grete, I'm visiting Vienna this month and have accommodation in Arcotel Kaiserwasser Wien hotel. Can you guide me which train should I use to reach the hotel. I'll appreciate your prompt response. Thanks
Hi, thanks for the very nice and informative video. I have one thing that is unclear: if I buy a weekly ticket, which costs €17.10, which additional tickets do I need to buy in order to travel from Vienna Airport to the city center, and vice versa, on the first and last days of my weekly pass and how?
The weekly ticket will only be valid for the city of Vienna.The airport is a little bit outside of Vienna, so you have to buy a ticket for this part of the connection. As mentioned in the video, you can go by bus, ÖBB train or CAT train. You have to buy these tickets separately from the weekly ticket.
@@gretetheaustrianguideHi again, so just to be sure, I have to buy a single ticket of €4.20 apart from my weekly ticket if I travel by S7. And I can buy that in WeinMobil app. Thanks.

Hi, I've never had any issues transporting large suitcases on the ÖBB trains, so I believe you'll be fine.
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.

Happy that you found the Video helpful! If you plan to go to Vienna you can also check out the Videos on my other channel. Its German but most videos (expecially the newer ones) have English subtitles! Channel name: is "Grete Walz" th-cam.com/users/gretewalz
@@gretetheaustrianguide Sure i will check them :)
Thank you!
Excellent, Grete! My family/I will visit Vienna 4/9/23 - 4/15/23 and we will stay with Hotel Am Schubertring located at Schubertring 11, 1010 Wien, Austria. Based on what I saw from your video, it seems that we can buy tickets to take S7 from the airport to Wien Mitte and walk for about 14 minutes to the hotel. May you kindly advise if this scenario would be effective? Many thanks!
Nice video. Liked the comparison screen. Is the su included in the 7 day travel card ?
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.
Thank you so much.
i very appreciate your great video
Happy, it helps!
Thanks for sharing! Can you please tell me where and which tourist sim to buy at Vienna airport? I'm renting a car upon landing so no time to go into city.
There is a booth where you can buy a SIM card in the arrival area after you exited the luggage pick up (not sure which provider, though). But mobile communication in Austria is very cheap anyways and the coverage of all big providers are very good in Vienna aswell. So you will get very good value for your money no matter which SIM card you buy. Just make sure to ask for a "Wertkarte", which means "Prepaid SIM". Alternatively you could buy your SIM card at some supermarkets like LIDL or Hofer or at a telecommunication shop in the city center. All Major Brands have Shops at Kärtnerstraße or Mariahilferstraße (which is directly in the city center). Enjoy your time in vienna!
Where to buy S7 ticket? In ÖBB red wending machine as well?
thx for the video we are family with 7 9 years kids at sunday we need to go to handelskai to breitensee will we buy tickets for the kids i plan to buy 72 hours tickests but i am confused
Absolutely brilliant video!👍 Austria super 👌
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"
Thanks for a very informative video! Can you please make one covering what to do / see during 1 day/night layover? Your pick on what to do/see in 1 day. We'll be traveling in the summer
Hi, we’re going to Herminengasse 3, Vienna which line we should take? Thank you
Excellant video very detailed will be arriving on vieana ion the 6th of may gives great description of airport and express train.😄may opt for the lazy way Taxi will be flying in from Phoenix Arizona 12 hour flight proberly will choose quickest way to get to hotel
Thank you for your kind feedback! I can totally relate to choosing the most comfortable option after a long flight :) Have a wonderful time in Vienna!
Hello, can I get a ticket for the OBB train from the Airport to Breclav in the Czech Republic as a connection trip? Thank you for such a good video.
Thank you for the video. I almost booked CAT instead of OBB (much cheaper option).
Do I have to take another ticket if I need to take a metro after the U7? Can I buy it at the Obb machine? Thanks!!!
Hi. Thank you so much for this. Please make more like this, its very helpfull.
Can you tell me, how to best go from hbf to the natural museum. I simply don’t get how to get the right tickets and lines. Will it make sense when we arrive? And also, is 2 hours there even enough. We are coming in by train at about 12.30, from Kufstein, and are flying from Vienna airport at 18.45, so not a lot of time unfortunately. We need to leave hbf at 17.12 I think. Then we have an hour and 15 to find he plane. We have prepaid for “pre check in”. We have 2 children with us, and I know they will love the museum, but if you have other recommendations it’ll look into that.
Hi! I recommend to search for the connections in google maps. I think its the easiest way to navigate in Vienna. There are different connections from Hauptbahnhof to Naturhistorisches Museum. But I would probably Tram Line D, which is a direct connection.
Also your schedule is pretty tight. I think it can work but it will probably be a bit stressful.
GRETE -Thank you so much! From Miami! ♥
Hi from Vienna!
Great video Grete, we are coming to Vienna in April via train from Budapest, will we be arriving at the Hauptbahnhof Wien?
I’m pretty sure, my question is, one ticket non stop to the airport from our arrival point and do they have the same machines at Hauptbahnhof Wien? It was great to see your video at a time when I had this question, thank you 🙏
Tank you lovely girl . I’ll arrive at 2 in Vienna airport , does BBO work ? Or the bus ?
As far as I’ve seen, only one bus operates around the clock: the Vienna Airport Lines Bus 1 (VAL1), which connects the airport to Wien Westbahnhof train station. For more information, visit this website: www.viennaairportlines.at/en/informationen/unser-streckennetz
Amazing ❤
Hi. Is there one app that you recommend for me to use for all transportation for the three weeks that i plan to stay or do you think ill have to use multiple apps? Thanks!
Hi! If you only stay in Vienna, I can recommend the Wien Mobil App. In this app you can search for transportation and you can also purchase tickets for the public transport in Vienna. I also made a Video about this App. th-cam.com/video/DsUQeHBFtCA/w-d-xo.html Alternatively you could use Google Maps. Google Maps is also a good option, if you plan to travel outside of Vienna. Enjoy your time in Vienna!

Planning to visit Vienna from Malaysia…
Hi Grete! Thanks for this awesome video! I travel to Vienna next month. This video helps me so much! 😊👍🏻
happy to help 😊
Good quality content! Thanks 🙏
happy to help!
Thank you so much! very informative video and straight forward. Do you maybe have any recommendations to travel from Vienna Airport to Salzburg. I was looking into the OBB train, should I book the ticket before hand on their website? and I my flight should arrive at 9.30am and the train leaving at 10.30am, is there enough time ? Thank you!
Hi Grete, I'm visiting Vienna this month and have accommodation in Arcotel Kaiserwasser Wien hotel. Can you guide me which train should I use to reach the hotel. I'll appreciate your prompt response. Thanks
Really nice, thanks 4 this tips, it helped me a lot! A similar video about taxis and rental cars would be very interesting
Thank you 😊.
Why not select “exclude city fare”, then add a 3 day or weekly pass most would get anyways?
Hi, thanks for the very nice and informative video. I have one thing that is unclear: if I buy a weekly ticket, which costs €17.10, which additional tickets do I need to buy in order to travel from Vienna Airport to the city center, and vice versa, on the first and last days of my weekly pass and how?
The weekly ticket will only be valid for the city of Vienna.The airport is a little bit outside of Vienna, so you have to buy a ticket for this part of the connection. As mentioned in the video, you can go by bus, ÖBB train or CAT train. You have to buy these tickets separately from the weekly ticket.
@@gretetheaustrianguide Thank you very much for the information.
@@gretetheaustrianguideHi again, so just to be sure, I have to buy a single ticket of €4.20 apart from my weekly ticket if I travel by S7. And I can buy that in WeinMobil app. Thanks.
