Cheap Flights from Vienna to Beijing Starting at $354

Vienna International Airport (VIE) is Austria’s main international gateway and typically functions as a full-service hub for Austrian Airlines and a range of European and intercontinental carriers. It usually handles most long-haul and transfer traffic, while budget airlines also operate regular services from the same terminal. The airport sits about 18 km southeast of the city center; travel times into central Vienna are typically 15–25 minutes by City Airport Train (CAT) or 20–30 minutes by regional S-Bahn, with fares commonly in the moderate range for rail and slightly higher for the express train. Taxis and ride-shares can take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and can be pricier than public options. Pros: efficient connections, good transfer facilities, ample lounges and services. Cons: can be busy during peak seasons and some central transport options carry a premium compared with slower regional trains.

Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) serves as China’s primary international gateway and a major global hub, handling many long-haul and full-service carrier operations alongside some domestic routes. It’s commonly served by flag-carrier and alliance airlines as well as several international carriers, so fares can range from premium to competitive depending on season and carrier. The airport is about 25–30 km northeast of the city center; travelers typically reach downtown by Airport Express train in roughly 20–30 minutes for a moderate fare, by taxi in 40–60 minutes depending on traffic with metered charges, or by express bus services that take 60–90 minutes. Advantages include extensive international connections and modern terminal facilities; downsides can be crowds at peak times and longer transfers between terminals. Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX) is positioned as a modern, large-scale international and domestic hub that complements the older airport, often serving a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers. Routes can be competitively priced, particularly on domestic and regional flights, though prices vary by carrier and timing. Daxing lies about 45–50 km south of central Beijing; high-speed rail and dedicated airport express services typically take around 30–40 minutes to business districts, while taxis or rideshares usually require 45–70 minutes with higher fares for the extended distance. The airport’s standout pros are cutting-edge facilities and efficient layout; potential cons include the longer transfer time for some travelers and the need to check which airport your flight departs from when connecting.
