Finding a flight to Austria?



There are numerous places to find summer flights and winter ski flights to Austria on the internet.

The Austrian Tourist board website keeps an updated list of  flight options in and around Austria. With separate pages for summer flights and winter flights, with convenient additional links on railway  information.



Click on the links below to find further Austrian ski / summer flight information.




  • Salzburg Airport flight info lists all the departures and arrivals. Access straight onto the motorway, and it is possible to be for example to be in Kaprun or Zell am See in around 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes. With a rail transfer from Salzburg taking a similar period of time.
  • Innsbruck Airport flight information  cover the western part of Austria, in the Tyrol it lists the charter and scheduled flights. An alternative airport is to get your ski flight to Munich in Germany. Around a 2 hour transfer time depending upon your resort location in Austria, with a convenient motorway direct from the airport  to Innsbruck and Salzburg and beyond.
  • Graz Airport flight information easy to use site which lists destinations by country and airport. Just off the motorway and about 1 hour from Salzburg, covering the central parts of Austria


  • Vienna International Airport flight information this site available in a number of different languages. Vienna being the historic capital of Austria, located close to the Slovakian border has excellent interconnecting links with the rest of the country, by rail, road and river!

Other alternatives are flights to northern Italy, Venice Marco Polo Airport which is around a 3-4 hour drive to Austria.

Another choice is Munich International Airport there are plenty of flights to this "hub" airport from around the world. This airport / flugplatz is around a one to one and half hours away from the Austrian border linked by motorway.

Austria has a great road network, making for easy driving or easy transfers to your chosen resort. Along with a modern railway system making  which i have heard described is like a figure of " 8"  around the country with trains going in both directions, it is convenient and reliable mode of transport, with the added benefit of some fantastic views, it makes getting around Austria a joy.

Austria Holiday Apartment in the Kaprun - Zell am See Salzburg Area

Snow Park Mellow Park on the Kitzsteinhorn above Kaprun opens.




The Mellow Park ski park on the Kitzsteinhorn glacier above Kaprun opens its doors for  the "White  out"  of  the  official  ski  season in Kaprun,  this normally  takes place around the  first or second weekend  in November.  With  the benefit  of  the glacier the  start  of  the ski season is  almost guaranteed.

Planet snow  along  with other weather forecasts  can give  a good  prediction of  snow conditions  With reports of snow "Snow looking Pretty good" across Europe, it sets a white back cloth to build on.

Planet Ski reports that RyanAir is offering a free ski transfer with flights booked over the next few days. Looks like an extra incentive to get that ski holiday booked?
