Route on the map
When to fly
School holidays, summer vacations and the winter holiday period all bring more travellers to this route than other times of year. December stands out as the month with lower demand from business passengers, making it easier to secure seats without peak pricing. Spring brings gradually increasing travel volumes leading toward the high season, while late autumn sees moderate traffic before the winter rush settles in.
Airlines and what to expect
Full-service carriers like Turkish Airlines, Emirates and Etihad Airways typically include checked baggage and meals within their fare structure on this route. Low-cost or budget operators such as Beijing Capital Airlines and Juneyao Airlines charge separately for bags and may offer seat selection only upon payment. Middle Eastern and Asian flag carriers each connect through different hub airports, so your choice determines which city you must pass through during the transfer.

Schwechat Intl serves Vienna from a single terminal that handles both domestic and international arrivals. The airport sits roughly twenty kilometres outside the city centre, reachable by train or bus without needing to navigate multiple transfers.
