Boarding

We call our guests in groups during the boarding process, i.e. when they enter the aircraft. This procedure allows all passengers to board quickly and conveniently.

Boarding by group

We divide the boarding process into the following groups to ensure quick and convenient boarding:

On continental flights

Quick boarding

You can scan your boarding pass yourself as you board at many airports, including Vienna Airport. Place your boarding pass on the scanner with the barcode facing down. After a quick check, the barrier is released and you can move on to the aircraft. If your seat has changed at the last minute, you will receive a new paper section from the quick boarding device showing the new seat information.
