    There are many flights to Austria from the UK which are direct, making this a great route to fly. For instance, you could fly directly with Ryanair from London Stansted Airport (STN). However, if you’re flying from Manchester Airport (MAN) with KLM, you’ll need to transfer along the way at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS).

Rather than producing 613 kg CO2 per passenger, it produces around 176 kg CO2.

  • How can I save time at UK airports?

    You can use a fast track service at many UK airports which fly to Austria, meaning you don’t have to worry about delays. For instance, you can access fast track in London Stansted Airport (STN) or Manchester Airport (MAN) for approximately £5 or at London Heathrow Airport (LHR) for around £12.50. There isn’t a fast track service at London City Airport (LCY), so you will need to ensure that you arrive in good time.

  • Which airport is recommended to visit the Austrian Alps?

    The Austrian Alps are a vast mountain range that stretches across the western and central parts of Austria, so the closest airport to the Austrian Alps will depend on the specific region or ski resort you plan to visit. Innsbruck Airport (INN) is the closest to the Western Austrian Alps. Salzburg Airport (W. A. Mozart Airport) (SZG) is a good option if you plan to explore the Central Austrian Alps, including famous regions like Salzburg, Zell am See, and Kaprun.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Austria

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Austria flight deals.
  • You do not need a visa to visit Austria as a British citizen, providing you are not staying in the country for more than 90 days. However, you will need to ensure that your passport has a minimum of three months remaining on it from the day you plan to leave Austria.
  • If you are planning to visit the western part of Austria, keep in mind that you can fly to alternative airports in Switzerland like St Gallen Airport (ACH) or Zurich Airport (ZRH), and continue to your final destination in Austria.
  • London Stansted Airport (STN) is a hub for Ryanair, meaning that there are more frequent flights, which is ideal if you are planning to fly to Vienna International Airport (VIE) or Salzburg W.A. Mozart Airport (SZG).
  • If you plan to continue to journey by air after visiting Austria, then you should fly to Vienna Airport (VIE). This airport is a hub for Austrian Airlines and also popular with other airlines, like Ryanair, so you will have a great choice of onward flights to choose from.
  • If you choose to fly with Austrian Air, then you can take advantage of their Economy Green or Business Green fares, which reduces your CO2 flight emissions by 20%. Their Green Fares allow you to earn extra miles and flexible re-booking.
  • If you are going to Austria to visit Vienna Festival then you should be aware that flight prices will probably be higher during this time period. The festival takes place for five to six weeks in May and June. If you are not visiting Austria for the Vienna Festival, then it's recommended you book around these dates to save money.

  • If you’re travelling to the west of Austria, such as Tirol or Vorarlberg, you can also look at airports in neighbouring countries. For instance, Munich International Airport (MUC) in Germany and Zurich Airport (ZRH) in Switzerland provide better access than if you were to fly to Vienna.

For example, at Stansted Airport (STN), you can use International Currency Exchange offices, whilst at Manchester Airport (MAN) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) you can access a Travelex currency exchange bureaus.

Leg room and seat back not a good recline (middle seat)

Leg room and seat back not a good recline (middle seat)

The option to check in the carry on bag for free was very convenient. If one checked bag could be included in the ticket price that would be even better.

It was very good, ,especially the working people in the plane, they are so polite.,thank you

They never gave any meal during the flight. We’ve flown for years and then doing this now is ridiculous.

I paid for carry-on bag, but they did not let me take it on board, persuaded to check it in because the flight was full. I agreed to help them out, and they mixed up tag numbers and my bag got lost. I had very valuable things in there, and my whole vacation experience was ruined. I even asked the boarding assistant why the tag number was different from the assigned one, but they assured me it was alright and the bag will arrive to my destination. Nothing arrived of course. Incompetence of boarding assistants cost me the loss of all my things.

They lost our luggage and there has been no news for 5 days. I called their office and they said they can’t help us, we don’t do anything about it.

My flight was changed, you over charged me for a change fee and seats that I did not get, I was out on standby with Austrian airlines. You stile $600 from me.

The problem is with Kayak and Underpricer. You overcharged me for a change fee and for seats that I did not get. You owe me $600

There was not enough sparkling water and beer during the flight. Coffee was not hot

There was not enough sparkling water available during the flight from LAX to Vienna.

Keep track of your departure times and communicate in Airport. I could have spend an hour more in my lounge

Great flight very short… no food drink or tv but too quick to matter… I would recommend.

Ryanair was ok but the flight is delayed 2 hours! We dont know the reason if it was either Ryanaair or the Kos airport or Vienna Airport …

Never have real problems...very ho prices for good the rest is all great

Ryanair is always shite. Slowest boarding possible in the most uncomfortable way. It’s like they are are tad sadistic.

Flight was delayed which happens but walking 15 mins to one gate to be then told it’s now changed to one 15 mins back then other way was frustrating

East check in and security. They are always delayed though. ALWAYS!

Amazed at huge number of people who hadn’t booked cabin bags with big troller cases and rucksacks, not being stopped, what’s the point in following rules or paying more if you don't have to bother?

Worse situation ever. Arriving at 4 am with 7 Hours of delay

Booked extra legroom seats but as plane had changed we ended up with normal seats. Very little attempt from staff to sort it out

Flight from Washington to Munich it was disappointing. I do not get the seat for what i pay. And the crew were rude with people which speaks other languages than german!

The connection to LYON was very tight. The flight was nearly finished boarding when we got to the gate

They separated me from my kids We were checked in to fly from Vienna to Frankfurt and Washington DC final destination but separated my wife and kids sent them to Barcelona instead then Washington DC They end up traveling for 26 hours Horrible experience Never Austrian Airlines/Lufthansa again!

The flight didn’t happen with Lufthansa. It got canceled with no reason given and all I received for my troubles was €20. People make travel plans for a reason and when the flight was rebooked, it was delayed for 4 1/2 hours on Austria Airlines. The flight attendants were of zero help. They just wanted to stand and look pretty. I hope to never fly Austrian Airlines again. Horrible!!

One shocking event is worth noting. I told a crew member that someone in the row ahead of us is listening to their iPad without earbuds. She looked and me and said "yes, so?" I asked if that's now allowed in Lufthansa flights and she said that it is. If this is true, I don't know how Lufthansa plans to control the coming cacophony of people listening to different things at the same time and driving the volume ever higher to drown our their neighbor's personal device.

I did not like that they failed to put my luggage on my connecting flight to Athens. I was promised it would be located and delivered within 2 days but later told there was no information on its location. This caused me to have unplanned for expenses because I then had to purchase new clothing to wear on my vacation. I did not receive my luggage until my return flight home. I will not be traveling with them again.

Food selection wasnt great, even for flight meals. However staff was e extremely pleasant

Lost my luggage and still not found to this point.

Overall experience is mediocre and the food was poor. I would avoid Lufthansa next time.

Absolutely the most awful experience in the history of service from gate agents to baggage handlers. Never will i use kayak or Lufthansa again. Ever.

I miss my flight due to boarding pass won’t load up

Flight schedule was modified and the final departure time delayed.

Big delay because of the weather but communication not so good. Boarding already late (due to tight schedule on Wizz side). When you get in you are hurried every second even if you still need a few seconds to arrange your bags. Food far away from how it looks in the catalogue and right on row 8 already out of chocolate although you are supposed to receive one for a menu. No replacement was offered.

The border control opens at 4:30 so there is no point in going in early as the wizz email suggests. Our flight utilized a plane with plastic seating which was really uncomfortable.

Check in took very long. All three priority agents left for lunch or something and the line did not move.

Il n’y a pas eu de vol du tout puisque celui à été déplacé à la veille sans aucune information. Aucun remboursement ni service client non plus. Scandale !

A GOOD IDEA IS TO SEND TO ME BOARDING PASS IN ADVANCE SO I DONT HAVE TO FIGHT FOR IT

Attesa lunga nella comunicazione del Gate e dopo l'apertura del Gate

Sempre in ritardo, bagni sporchi e sedili sporchi con le briciole

Wizzair is a mess, don’t trust them, all flights are delayed, nothing is secure with them, they are the poorest of all companies.

Flight OK but they only loaded half of the checked bags on. This they only told us on arrival

Flight cancelled! Rebooked by circuitous routing although there were seats available on other nonstop flights.

My experience was very disappointing. Firstly I was unable to check in using the kiosks. Secondly even though I purchased a flight with one checked bag, I was told at the counter that a checked bag was not included in my flight booking. And I had to pay for my bag. At the check in counter, the airline representative was very arrogant and demeaning. She insisted on charging me £140 for the luggage. And said it was an automatic charge calculated by the scale. This didn’t make sense to me. As it was 0.5 kg overweight. Which only required me to remove 2 bottles of water. Having an extensive flight schedule that involved multiple flights included NY and Brussels, this leg of my flight was the most stressful and unpleasant.

Service of the crews were great. Food on flight was very greasy, and salty.

Sardine can herringbone layout in business class. Uncomfortable and nowhere to put your book, phone, headphones, etc. worst hard product ever, and the service and food aren’t good enough to make it worthwhile. Expensive garbage. British Airways purchased this thinking only about financials, clearly not customer experience. British Airways business class is the garbage truck of the skies. Hard pass!

Horrible. I bought a flight with British airlines from Amsterdam to Orlando via London. Less than a day they changed my flight to London so I had to fly to London city airport and then find my way to Gatwick for my connecting flight. It was very costly

I never travelled better and more comfortably than with this flight because I was upgraded to the business class! it was amazing in every aspect. I was able to lay down and sleep, and the food was comparable to a gourmet restaurant menu. The flight was not only on time, but even much earlier, the crew was excellent as well. It felt like a very nice reward after so many uncomfortable and frustrating travels in the past decades. Even though most of my past trips were not with BA, they gave me a memorable gift with this favor. Thank you British Airways!

Aircraft delayed for two hours due to a technical issue with the rear emergency exit door slide not working.

No entertainment system, but it is a short flight so that is not a big deal.

What a great flight that was. Leaving from the small London City Airport, which was easy and convenient to get to on public transport, The flight was slightly delayed, but no big deal. The crew was attentive and served the light sandwich meal, a snack and a soft drink with a smile. The seats were ok, but the same like other budget airlines. The onboard luggage allowance was good and way better and hassle free compared with budget airlines. Well done B.A. and keep the good work up 👍👏
