Cheap flights from Amsterdam to Vienna

The weeks either side of the cheapest month are often easier for fare hunting than the holiday stretch itself. December is named as the cheapest month for this route, but festive dates can still tighten availability.

Midweek departures are usually calmer than weekend ones, and school holidays in either country can shift demand. Check the date grid around Christmas and New Year before you commit, and compare the months shown on the page.

Start by reading what the fare includes, because extras can appear after the first price. On this route the named carriers are Easyjet, Transavia Airlines, Vueling Airlines, Austrian, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Malta Airlines, Air Europa, Norwegian International, Pegasus and LOT Polish Airlines, and their ticket rules differ.

The list does not label carriers as low-cost or full-service, so compare fare rules rather than brand alone. Direct flights exist on this route, yet some itineraries still connect, so check whether your ticket is one through fare or separate segments. Baggage, seat choice and meals can be included or charged separately.

Getting into town is usually straightforward: expect rail, bus or coach links plus taxis, and allow time for the transfer after landing. Schwechat Intl serves Vienna, so check which transport runs at your arrival hour.

The airport is outside the city centre, and late arrivals may face reduced services. Watch for baggage reclaim delays, walking distances between gates and the correct meeting point for pickups.
