Review of Austrian Airlines flight from Vienna to Mulhouse / Bâle in Business

transit in vienna

We made our way to the F gates:

And it was with another pax bus :)

Heading to F:

And to the lounge:

autrian f-gates lounges

Here we are:

Today only the Gold side of the lounge is open.

Some views of the lounge:

The offer is really good:

Drinks:

More drinks:

Soft drinks:

And the food:

It's really decent and a nice change from the usual airport lounge food:

This lounge has a nice view over the tarmac:

The plane that brought us from OSL:

Light snack:

back to our homes

My friend is leaving to GVA 5 minutes before me and since his gate is just next to mine we left together, same way :)

We used the travelator:

We said goodbye, wasn't too hard, as we knew we would see us again 5 days later :)

My plane is here, no pax bus!

the flight

Gate open:

And boarding:

The door:

Another nice welcome but something will happen that will make me a bit grumpy.

The pitch:

Front view:

The boarding finished but there were still some hold luggage to load. The CC introduced herself to the guy sitting in 1A, offers him a bottle of water and asks if he needs something. He asked for a blanket and got two.
It was a delicate attention, but we were 4 passengers in business class and the loading took another 10 minutes but we were totally ignored.

The guy may have been a VIP or a HON member, but when you do this in front of the other passengers and do nothing for them, I think it doesn't give the right signal.

My friend's flight was supposed to leave 5 minutes before me, but eventually we left just before him!


Goodbye Vienna!

The sun already set:

I am pleased to see another hot dish, the portions are still on the small side but it is tasty and really, really good:

Same ending as per the previous flight :)

And again, I felt asleep (being awake for most of the night before to watch the lights killed me ^^).  Just landed!

Leaving the plane:

At that time the vaccination certificate was still checked, but there was almost no wait:

For the return I elected to check my bag and had to wait for it, but it came in no time:

At the belt:

My bag arrived first:

And I head to the parking to look for my father waiting for me :)

There is also a snack bar at the arrival level, you can snack while your children are playing :)

So where is my father?
