Vienna International Airport (VIE) serves as Austria’s primary international gateway and a full-service hub for flag carrier and long-haul connections, while also handling a mix of low-cost and regional airlines. Located about 18 km southeast of the city center, it’s typically seen as mid-priced compared with Western European hubs. Ground links include the City Airport Train (CAT) at roughly 16–20 minutes to central Vienna, the S7 suburban rail taking about 25 minutes, and regular buses and taxis that can range from 20–40 minutes depending on traffic; fares vary from budget public-transport prices to higher taxi/regional-rail tickets. The airport is usually praised for efficient transfer routes and good shopping, though peak times can be busy and the terminal can feel spread out for tight connections.
Shanghai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Pudong International (PVG) functions as the city’s primary international hub, handling most long-haul and premium carriers alongside major Chinese and global airlines; it can be perceived as mid-to-high in price compared with secondary airports. Located about 30–40 km east of downtown, transfer options include the magnetic levitation train (about 8 min to Longyang Road then 20–40 min to central areas), metro lines (~40–60 min, low fares), taxis or ride-hailing (40–60 min, higher fares). Pudong’s strengths are extensive international connections and modern facilities; downsides include longer transfer times and occasional congestion. Hongqiao (SHA) typically operates as Shanghai’s domestic and regional gateway and accommodates many budget and full-service Chinese carriers on short-haul routes. It sits closer to the city center—roughly 10–15 km west of central districts—making it quicker to reach: metro or airport express are around 20–30 minutes and relatively inexpensive, while taxis or rideshares usually take 25–45 minutes depending on traffic. Hongqiao can be more convenient for domestic transfers and business travelers seeking shorter commutes, though international connectivity is more limited and peak-hour crowding can affect comfort.
