About the airport
Vienna Schwechat Airport (VIE) is unquestionably the most important aviation hub in Central Europe. Welcoming over 30 million passengers per year, it connects Austria — and much of the surrounding region — to virtually every corner of the globe. Situated just 18 km south-east of the Innere Stadt, the historic heart of Vienna, a private airport transfer from Vienna delivers you to the city centre in approximately 25-30 minutes, making VIE one of the most conveniently located major airports in Europe.
Vienna is a city of music, diplomacy and international commerce. It hosts the United Nations Office, OPEC headquarters and the OSCE, alongside hundreds of embassies and consulates. The legendary concert halls — Musikverein, Wiener Staatsoper, Konzerthaus — draw performers and audiences from around the world, while the Austria Center Vienna and Messe Wien serve as venues for major conferences and trade fairs. For diplomats, artists and corporate delegates, booking a VIP transfer from Vienna Airport is not a luxury but a practical necessity — guaranteeing punctuality, discretion and a vehicle befitting the occasion.
Vienna's strategic geography makes VIE Airport the ideal starting point for multi-capital itineraries across Central Europe. Bratislava is a mere 45 minutes by car from the airport — many travellers use Vienna as their gateway to the Slovak capital. Budapest lies roughly 2.5 hours away, Prague about 3.5 hours, and Krakow also approximately 3.5 hours. We operate all these routes as premium long-distance transfers with the same high standard of service you would expect on a city transfer.
Discover our complete network of airport transfer hubs across Poland and Europe. Whether you need a chauffeur in Vienna, Warsaw, Berlin or Budapest, VIP Transfers provides a consistent, first-class experience.

Commercial routes
This is the core VIE route for premium hotel arrivals, executive meetings and exact First District drop-offs. The real value is not the short mileage itself but precise hotel access, calm arrivals handling and a smooth arrival at the final address.
Open route →VIE -> BTS is the shortest inter-airport route in Europe: 55 km and 50 min - 1 h of driving. Vienna and Bratislava are close sisters — the two closest capital cities in the world after Vatican and Rome. We leave VIE on the Austrian A4 through Schwechat, A6 to the Berg border (Schengen, no checks) and Slovak D2 into Stefanik. BTS is a strong Wizz Air and Ryanair base across Europe (Tel Aviv, Dubai, Kyiv, Milan, London, Barcelona, Sofia, Belgrade), often significantly cheaper than VIE. The route is popular for Vienna + Bratislava combos (1-2 days) and for connection passengers: a long-haul arrival into VIE and a low-cost Wizz Air continuation out of BTS. Price EUR 280 for a Mercedes E-Class (1-3 passengers) — the cheapest a2a in our network. V-Class from EUR 360 for 4-6. Bottleneck is the A23 around Vienna during 7-9 and 16-19 peak hours (up to 15 min). The service runs 24/7, so we also handle overnight and early BTS departures. We recommend a 2 hour buffer before a Stefanik departure.
Open route →Hallstatt was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1997 as the Hallstatt-Dachstein/Salzkammergut Cultural Landscape — widely considered the most beautiful village in Austria and one of the most photographed places in the world (1900 inhabitants, 1 million visitors a year). Set on the crystal-clear Hallstättersee lake at the foot of the Dachstein massif, it combines 7000 years of unbroken salt extraction (the worlds oldest salt mine Salzwelten Hallstatt — reached by a funicular at 838 m above sea level, with an underground brine lake and a 64 m wooden miners slide) with Baroque timber-and-stone architecture clinging to a steep mountain slope. The Marktplatz with its lakeside Protestant church, the Catholic Mariä Himmelfahrt with the Beinhaus ossuary (610 painted skulls), the Hallstatt Skywalk World Heritage View 360 m above the village, and a lake cruise on the Stefanie. 310 km via the A1 motorway to Linz and the B158 along the Salzkammergut lakes (Traunsee, Attersee, Wolfgangsee), 3 h 30 min - 4 h. The service runs 24/7. A standard plan: 7:30 hotel pickup in Vienna, 11:00 arrival in Hallstatt, 11:30 Salzwelten funicular and salt mine (2 h 30 min), 14:30 lunch at Gasthof Zauner (apple strudel and lake fish), 16:00 a walk on the Marktplatz and Beinhaus, 17:00 a 50 min lake cruise, 18:00 departure, 21:30 Vienna. From EUR 950 in a Mercedes E-Class for 1-3 passengers, EUR 1100 in a V-Class for 4-6.
Open route →Paris is the capital of France, one of the most visited cities in the world (38 million tourists a year) and a global capital of art, fashion, gastronomy and luxury. Most clients fly Vienna-Paris (LH/AF/OS 2 h 15 min), but the private cross-border chauffeur transfer over 1240 km Vienna-Paris is regularly chosen by art collectors moving paintings and sculptures (climate-controlled V-Class boot, no airport X-ray), Christie's and Sotheby's auction guests, couples travelling to a Paris wedding (a wedding dress carried flat without folding), buyers at Fontainebleau luxury auctions, and clients who value privacy and discretion. Route: A1 Vienna-Linz-Salzburg (300 km, 3 h), A8 Salzburg-Munich (140 km, 1 h 30 min), A8/A5 Munich-Stuttgart (220 km, 2 h 15 min), A5/A4 Stuttgart-Strasbourg border (170 km, 1 h 45 min), A4 Strasbourg-Reims-Paris (470 km, 4 h 30 min). Total 1240 km, 12-13 h of driving plus breaks. A 2-day option with an overnight in Strasbourg (Hotel Cour du Corbeau, Régent Petite France) or Reims (Domaine Les Crayères) — day 1 Vienna-Strasbourg 850 km 8 h, day 2 Strasbourg-Paris 400 km 4 h. The service runs 24/7 with flight tracking on a VIE pickup. A standard plan for art collectors: 6:00 hotel pickup in Vienna, drive across Germany, 18:30 overnight in Strasbourg, day 2 8:00 departure, 12:30 Paris and a drop-off at Hotel George V (31 Avenue George V, Four Seasons) or Le Meurice on Rue de Rivoli, an afternoon at the Louvre or the auction. Alternative drop-offs: a private CDG Charles de Gaulle terminal for an onward flight, or Le Bourget LBG for a private jet pickup. From EUR 2800 in a Mercedes E-Class for 1-3 passengers (1-way, 2-day plan with overnight), from EUR 3200 in a V-Class for 4-6. A Vienna-CDG flight costs around EUR 200-450 economy or EUR 1200-2500 business — for four passengers the chauffeur transfer is competitive on time (no 3 h check-in, no security, no baggage wait) and gives door-to-door without connections.
Open route →Kitzbühel is a legend of world skiing and one of the most recognisable Alpine resorts — a medieval town (8000 inhabitants, town rights granted in 1271) in Tirol with colourful houses on Vorderstadt and Hinterstadt, framed by the Kitzbüheler Horn (1996 m) and the Hahnenkamm (1712 m). The Hahnenkamm-Streif is the toughest and most dangerous downhill in the FIS World Cup (since 1931, 3312 m long, 860 m drop, 27 degrees average gradient, 85% at the Mausefalle start) — every year on the third weekend of January 60 000 spectators watch the race live and another 70 million across 28 countries on television. The ski season covers 195 km of slopes in the KitzSki area (Kitzbühel + Kirchberg + Jochberg + Pass Thurn), with EUR 25 million a year in snowmaking and a guaranteed October-May season. Five-star hotels include A-Rosa Kitzbühel (Ried Kaps 7, 18-hole golf, 5000 m2 spa), Hotel Zur Tenne (Vorderstadt 8, run by the Harisch family since 1953), Schloss Lebenberg JUFA Resort (a 17th-century castle above town) and Hotel Kitzhof Mountain Design Resort. Notable restaurants include Sportakademie Kitzbühel (Hahnenkamm-Stüberl), Stamperl, Lois Stern and the Kitzhof Mountain Design Restaurant. 420 km via the A1 and A12 Inntal motorways with a turn-off onto the B312 or via Wörgl, 4 h 30 min. The service runs 24/7, flight tracking from VIE, winter tyres from November, snow chains on board. From EUR 1350 in a Mercedes E-Class one-way for 1-3 passengers, from EUR 1600 in a V-Class for 4-6 (winter and Hahnenkamm weekend surcharge applies).
Open route →Český Krumlov was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1992 — a medieval town on a bend of the Vltava river with the second-largest castle complex in the Czech Republic after Prague (40 buildings, 5 courtyards, 7-hectare Baroque gardens). The riverside castle was built from 1240 by the Vitkovci, then by the Rosenbergs (1302-1602), the Eggenbergs and the Schwarzenbergs until 1947 — the Hradek tower with 16th-century polychrome, the Masquerade Hall with trompe-l'oeil from 1748, the Baroque Castle Theatre from 1766 (one of only two surviving 18th-century Baroque theatres in the world with original stage machinery, the other being Drottningholm), and the three-storey Cloak Bridge linking the castle to the gardens and the Bellaria summer pavilion. The Old Town with Náměstí Svornosti, the Gothic Church of St Vitus from 1407 and a 1716 Baroque plague column. The Egon Schiele Art Centrum (the artist lived here in 1911 — his mother was from Krumlov), the Marionette Museum and the Eggenberg Brewery from 1560 with tours and tastings. 230 km via the A4 motorway and the E55 through Linz and the Wullowitz/Dolní Dvořiště border, 2 h 45 min. The service runs 24/7. A standard plan: 8:30 hotel pickup in Vienna, 11:30 arrival, 12:00 castle tour with the Baroque theatre (2 h 30 min), 14:30 lunch at Krčma v Šatlavské (Czech cuisine, game), 16:00 a walk through the Old Town and Egon Schiele Art Centrum, 17:30 tasting at Eggenberg Brewery, 18:30 departure, 21:15 Vienna.
