Vienna Airport Train Recommendations
IHateTaxis.com has a mixed recommendation on the Vienna Airport train service.
While this is a relatively convenient way to get into town, the terminal is some distance from the old town, and you may require a taxi to get to your final destination.
Note: with the constuction at the Vienna City Air Terminal, IHT users have reported poor signage and a lack of a tourist information office as contributing to this not being an ideal option if you are headed to the old town.
