Cheap flights from Heraklion to Vienna

The high season runs through summer months when school holidays bring demand, while January stands out as the cheapest month on this route. Booking mid-week flights generally costs less than weekend departures, and avoiding peak holiday periods around Christmas and Easter helps secure better fares across all twelve months where prices appear.

KLM Royal Dutch Airlines operates connections through Amsterdam with full-service baggage included, while Aegean Airlines links via Athens on similar terms. Ryanair and Norwegian provide budget options without checked luggage in base fares, Transavia France connects through Paris with its own fare structure, and LOT Polish Airlines offers routes via Warsaw. Additional carriers including Air Serbia, Vueling Airlines, Hahn Air Technologies, and CORENDON AIRLINES also serve this route on various schedules.

Arriving late at Schwechat Intl changes your transport options since not all trains run until midnight. The airport sits about thirty kilometers from Vienna's centre with S-Bahn rail reaching central stations in roughly twenty-five minutes. Taxis and bus services provide alternatives when rail connections have stopped running, though evening arrival may mean longer waits or higher costs.
