Travel information

Rent a car at Vienna Airport

Renting a car at Vienna Airport is the most convenient way to explore Austria

There are numerous car rental offices in the city of Vienna but almost always the most convenient solution is to rent a car at Vienna-Schwechat Airport.

When you pick up your car at the airport, you won’t have to waste time looking for a car rental office and you will find multilingual staff who will certainly be able to answer you in English, and airport offices often have longer opening hours than city offices.

You can find all car rental companies at Vienna Airport at the ‘car rental centre’ located on level zero of the P4 car park, which can be reached from the arrivals terminal via a short underground passage. There are more than ten national and international companies, including EuropCar, Hertz, Budget, Avis and Sixt.

Our car rental search form in Vienna also allows you to view the offers of the companies present at the airport.

Tips for driving in Vienna

Austrian drivers are generally very law-abiding and respect the rules and drive in a very orderly manner. However, we advise you to be careful if you drive into the city centre as one-way streets and narrow streets can be a bit tricky for the foreign driver.

For those travelling from November to March, it is a legal obligation, as well as common sense, to have winter tyres fitted on all four wheels or to have snow chains on board to be fitted if necessary.

Park and ride

If the idea of driving into the city centre frightens you or if you are stressed about finding parking space but still want to have a car available for day trips and to conveniently reach the airport, you can opt for an intermediate solution, i.e. renting a car and leaving it in the car park of your hotel or B&B while you visit the city centre.

In this case, we recommend that you stay in a peripheral area, such as Donaustadt, from where it is easy to leave the city; in addition, many hotels in the area have free parking facilities. Alternatively, you can take advantage of the park-and-ride car parks at some underground stations outside the centre.
