Austrian Airlines

Pros: Excellent business class service, good food and caring staff
Cons: Not too many cons, although service in coach may not be as good

I flew Austrian Airlines to Zurich recently with a group from the University of Virginia. Not usually being much for group travel, the great price of the package to Interlaken in off-season January was simply too good to miss.

Cons: none really

Reaching the rather grand age of 42 one learns that there are a few basic and solid truths in this life. One of them is that you can spend the whole day at work surfing the web and writing epinions reviews as long as you look and act as if you're doing...

Pros: modern planes with individual entertainment centers
Cons: no codeshare seat selection - mixed service

We two retirees recently flew a roundtrip United / Austrian codeshare flight between US west coast-Vienna. Going over we transferred to Austrian in New York (JFK) and returned through Washington Dulles.

We hold Premier frequent flyer status...

Pros: Reasonable fares, easy availability of seats and a good fleet.
Cons: Food not as good as other airlines, few flights.

I flew Austrian Airlines last month as I was flying to South Asia and all the other flights were either too expensive or booked. My travel agent suggested that I try Austrian Airlines and it was a pleasant experience. I won't say I had the time of my...

Pros: nice planes, excellent entertainment, large seats
Cons: bad itinerary, forgot meal, as stated.

Since Lauda Air partners with Austrian Airlines and there is no category for Lauda, I will post this here:

I booked a flight from the Gold Coast, Australia to London, UK on Lauda Air which was supposed to be direct with one stop...

Pros: Good In-Flight Service
Cons: None

I definitely recommend Austrian Airlines. My family and I flew the airline from New York to Vienna, Austria. We checked in very early which was fine because we were all able to have window seats in the same area. The airline agents were nice but...

Pros: comfortable, efficient
Cons: none

For once in a very long time, I am proud to report that Austrian Airlines left at, not after, the scheduled departure time!! Departing at the scheduled time is almost a thing of the past so, suffice to say, I was very impressed with their efficiency and...

Pros: If you travel to Europe and want to save some money, this is the company for you!
Cons: Not flexible regarding changes in flight schedule.

My first experience with intercontinental flights was with "Swissair". Even though my overall impression of this company's services was favorable, as a student on a tight budget I couldn't afford to fly with them from USA to Europe once or...

Pros: Polite staff made you feel at ease
Cons: I can't think of any

I flew Austrian Air for my very first plane trip to Europe, actually it was my first flight anywhere. I was a little nervous about flying but the staff made me feel right at ease.

Checking in and boarding were well organized, and the flight...

Pros: Friendly service, nice atmosphere
Cons: none

Austrian Airlines is an excellent airline. Not only is the service good but the flight attendants go out of their way to make the passengers comfortable and satisfied.
If you have children with you, you can expect a flight attendant to come around...

Pros: leg room, excellent selection of entrees, efficient service, comfortable surroundings.
Cons: Truly have not found any--but then I'm a Delta frequent flyer and what do I know?

Just when I thought the airlines had accomplished total brainwashing for lousy service, along comes someone like Austrian Airlines. A breath of fresh air does not say enough about this freak of flying.

Non-stop, Atlanta, Vienna

We...

Pros: Modern fleet, pleasant service, extensive Eastern Europe network, Star Alliance
Cons: None in my opinion

Austrian bills its airline as "Like Smile in the Sky" and that is a perfect description of this incredible airline. I am based in Eastern Europe and my job requires a lot of travel. Austrian Airlines is my carrier of choice and in my opinion is the best...

Pros: considering what I went through, hard-pressed to think of any
Cons: tardiness, inefficiency of ground staff who came across as the opposite of caring

My other half and I had booked a direct 9-hour non-stop flight from Toronto to Vienna on Austrian Airlines. We got bumped off our original flight with half a dozen other passengers at Toronto airport, the airline having overbooked over a long holiday ...

Pros: Decent food and service. Frequent flier plan is honored by several airlines.
Cons: Tortuously cramped aisles and seating. Recliners bang knees behind them. Don't bother with business class.

I'm almost 5'3" and petite. My traveling companion, RJ, is a husky 6'5" football player. RJ had taught me to book exit row aisle seats when flying coach to benefit from the greater leg and elbow room compared to other coach seating. But for this trip, ...
