After leaving Prague by train, we arrived and stayed for a day at Vienna
Then, we took the train from the central station to the airport for 15min approximately and 3.90euros
Before passing the security checks, we could spot :
Dash 8 OS
Fokker 100 OS
Embraer 195 OS
A320 family OS (one A319 has a star alliance livery)
B777 OS
B777 Eva Air



The controls are fluent despite the impressive number of travellers
We were allowed to take the priority lane.

bad news : our plane is an A320 and not a Embraer 195
I'm extremely disappointed because I chose this flight to try this plane

However, we were seated at the seat A or C or D or F, so we were like in Euro-Business at BA or AF
my seat like a lufthanse one
very confortable


photo img_2483

a very good pitch

The seat behind me is not so clean

Conclusion

A good flight with OS despite of the hard turn
I loved VIE which is the best spotter friendly airport I've ever been
OTP is a good airport but the restructuration of the passport controls made the airport less fluent.

  • Thank you for sharing this report, PapaSierraGolf91. A pity the aircraft was changed. Were you informed why? Nevertheless you were lucky with the seating layout. You are right, terminal 3 is quite good for spotting. Unfortunately I can't say that about the other terminals, where must of the windows have an obstructed view, as seen in one of my last reports from Vienna to Paris.

  • Thanks for the comment.

    I asked to one of the flight attendants the reason, she answered she didn't know ; she guessed the previous flight of the Embraer was delayed.
