Vienna International Airport / Flughafen Wien-Schwechat (VIE/LOWW) is the Gateway to Austria located on the far east of Austria, close to the borders of Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. Vienna handled in 2017 24.4 Mio. passengers and 290000 tons of freight. The Airport is a HUB for Austrian Airlines and the newly founded Eurowings Europe.
The Airport is served by most of the European Carriers. From Africa: Air Algerie, Air Cairo, Egypt Air, Ethiopian, Nouvelair and Tunis Air. From Asia: Air China, Air India, China Airlines, Emirates (only A380 service), ElAl, Eva Air, Georgian Airways, Iran Air, Korean Air, Thai, Qatar and Royal Jordanian. America is only served by Austrian Airlines.
The Airport is also a destination for many business jets. Also Cargo aircraft serve VIE including Asiana Cargo (74F), ASL Airlines Belgium, Cargolux (74F), Fedex, Korean Air Cargo (daily B77F/B74F), Silk Way Airlines (B74F), Turkish Cargo and UPS.
Spotting at VIE is not that easy as you have to walk long distances on farm tracks. Don’t drive up the tracks around the airport it is forbidden. The Police is controlling this and you get fined for using them!

| WHAT | Aircraft approaching runway 34. |
| TIME | Almost all day long in except noon. Just switch your position when the sun turns over. |

| MISC. | The fence is nice to spot from, big holes, plenty of room. You are slightly above the runway. There are more photo holes between position 7 and 8. If you want to try different angles before touchdown zone you’ll need a 2 step ladder or similar |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 70+ [Fokker at 170mm, Lufthansa at 140mm, Austrian at 230mm, 747 at 120mm, Tarom at 210mm, Niki at 120mm] |
Spotting Hill - Runway 16/34 Movements

Hill from the ground:
View from the hill’s top:
Rubbish Hill - RWY16 departures and arrivals
| WHERE | Best to park next to spot #11 and walk for 15 minutes to the hill. Its almost the as same as spot #11 but continue for a couple of minutes along the perimeter until you reach a big hill to your left. Now you have a great overlook of the runway and eastern part of the airport. |
| WHAT | All arrivals and departures on RWY16. Departures on RWY34 too but can be already pretty high. As you shot planes on the ground heat haze can become a problem in the summer. |
| TIME | From sunrise until ~10:00 all year round. |
| MISC. | Absolutely nothing here. The road can be muddy and dirty so be prepared. This spot is not really legally accessible anymore: there is a fence, preventing spotters from climb onto the “Rubbish Hill”. However, the fence is quite damaged at several parts, so if you want to cross it, it won’t be difficult. Do it at your own risk though: in theory, it is illegal. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 16 Arr/Dep: 100-250mm [CRJ at 230mm, 767 at 160mm) 34 Departure: 70+ [Fokker at 180mm, 767 at 100mm, 737 at 230mm] |
Stone Bricks - RWY16 approach
| WHERE | Coming from the airport drive on the 9 to Fischamend. After you have passed the approach path of RWY16 you see a small industrial area. Turn right, drive trough and turn right once you have leave the area. Now follow this road until you reach the marked parking spot. Leave your car hear and walk over the bridge, follow the dirt path along the perimeter fence until the first intersection. There you are. |
| WHAT | Arrivals on RWY16 only. There are some stones to climb up so you can watch over the fence. |
| TIME | From sunrise until ~10:00 all year round. |
| MISC. | Absolutely nothing here. The road can be muddy and dirty so be prepared. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | Brennweiten: 80-220mm EVA Air A330 – 90mm; Luxair DHC-8: 210mm; China Airlines A350 – 170mm; Qatar B787 – 105mm; El Al B737 – 160mm; Austrian B777 – 85mm |
Parking for the spot – take the bridge on your left (not on the picture here):
Grass Field - RWY16 approach
| WHERE | Park your car as described above for #11 but then instead of crossing the bridge, simply walk ahead towards the airport fence. You can even go up the grass field to your right. Compared to #11 you have no disturbing objects and a clear background at your photos. No ladder needed, you can spot here. |
| WHAT | Arrivals on RWY16 only. |
| TIME | From sunrise until ~10:00 all year round. |
| MISC. | Absolutely nothing here. The road can be muddy and dirty so be prepared. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | Rossiya A319: 190mm; Alitalia A320: 170mm; Ukraine B737-500: 230mm |
Same parking again, but now take the street at the front here:
Parking P4 - Ramp, 16 arrivals
| WHERE | This spot is on the top level of P4 parking. Just follow the signs. |
| WHAT | A very nice view on the apron between the new Skylink, Terminal three and the cargo apron. Also RWY16 arrivals but a long lense is needed! |
| TIME | Depends on the angle but perfect for night shots. Shots on RWY16 in the afternoon. |
| MISC. | It’s a regular parking, easy to get to and from the terminal. Just go to the corner of the top level. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 50+ [A320 at 120mm, Retro at 140mm, 320 closeup at 300mm, 777 at 170mm, A330 at 250m, overview at 75mm] |
Viewing terrace - Tarmac
| WHERE | The entrance to the terrace is from the terminal building. Rather easy to find. You need to pass through a security check before entering. It also costs a couple of euro (not much but be prepared). |
| WHAT | Best for aircraft on the tarmac. You can also “photograph” landings on RWY 16 but they are very very far (400mm for 767, see sample). |
| TIME | The sun is usually on the other side so its not the best photo location. |
| MISC. | The entrance costs 4€ for a day for one adult, and 2€ for a child (2-16yo). The terrace is outside and there is no glass between you and the tarmac. Unfortunately the apron is situated in the same direction as the sun is most of the day so it’s a fun place to sit at, but for pictures definitely better when the weather is poor. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 18+ [767 at 155mm, Aeroflot at 125mm, 777 at 195mm] |
Parking P3 - Apron
| WHERE | This spot is on the top level of P3 parking. Just follow the signs. |
| WHAT | Some aircraft standing on the apron. |
| TIME | Depends on the angle but perfect for night shots. |
| MISC. | It’s a regular parking, easy to get to and from the terminal. Just go to the the top level and find a spot that suits you. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 70+ [Niki at 230mm, BA at 300mm, Emirates at 240mm, Luxair at 270mm, Turkish at 300mm, Germanwings at 300mm] |
Roadside - 29 departures and 11 arrivals
| WHERE | This spot is located right at the side of the road that runs between Schwechat and the airport. It is no exact position, rather the area along/around here. You have just find a spot, where you can leave your cark (there are some lay bays on the south side of the street) and then just search your favourite position around here. |
| WHAT | You can see 29 departures and 11 arrivals from here. |
| TIME | Best for in the early summer mornings for 11 arrivals. Rest of the day backlit. |
| MISC. | Nothing right here, but in the nearby town Schwechat you’ll find restrooms, shops and hotels. Parking is very difficult here due to some restrictions at some parts of the streetside. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 200 – 350mm B777 = 200mm / CRJ7 = 330mm |
Dirt Road - 29 departures and 11 arrivals
| WHERE | Basically in the middle of a field and a long walk as its not allowed to drive on the dirt roads as the police checks this regulary. Park your car as marked on the map and don’t block the road and walk up the farm track. You won’t find much around. Go along the concrete road until you reach the third column of trees to your left. There you turn left to the dirt road and follow it until the next intersection. You can also get there from the Mannswörth train station. |
| WHAT | You can get nice pics of departing aircraft “doing the 29 curve” (turning to the left as they climb out from rwy 29). For arrivals on 11 just go to spot #18 to the fence for being closer, although they can also be seen from here (see example pictures). |
| TIME | In winter almost all day long – in summer from morning hours on till later afternoon. |
| MISC. | It’s a field so take everything you need with you, no shops, no lavatories, no benches. Heat haze can be a problem very fast in the summer. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | Iran Government B707: 230mm / Ed Force One (B747-400): 160mm / Easyjet A319: 260mm / Austrian A320 Retro: 300mm |
Crash Gate - 11 Arrivals and Line-Ups
| WHERE | This spot is located right at the fence near Gate “W 02”. To get to this spot, just park like you’d do for spot #17 and also got to spot #17 afterwards. But then keep walking till the fence until you rech it and the mentioned gate. Then search your favourite position along this area as this spot is no exact position here. |
| WHAT | Arrivals and Line-Ups onto runway 11. |
| TIME | In winter almost all day long – in summer from morning hours on till later afternoon. |
| MISC. | Ladder might be very useful to spot from here, although you can also shot through the gate-/fenceholes – some pictures will have dark corners then. Nothing around here, so take everything with you. Heat haze can be a problem. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 70 – 250mm B767 = 100mm / E175 = 180mm |

Hi Guys,
does somebody know where to find the aircraft registrations for Austrian CARGO ? (ALG Austrian Lufthansa Cargo GmbH). I can find online only those for Austrian passengers aircrafts, or those for Lufthansa Cargo.
Thx
Francesco
Hi, Austrian Airlines has no cargo planes like LH Cargo. They only use the belly of their pax planes for cargo.
-Julian
Thanks for the reply, I was struggling to find out which AUA aircrafts were involved, then I finally found this info on Monday already and also suggested FR24 to post something about the 2 planes en route to VIE…. https://twitter.com/flightradar24/status/1242067171775262739
btw I live in Vienna, my parents in Southtyrol, the local authorities got those equipment yesterday thanks to the Austrain Bundesheer
Hi guys, at spot 10 is it possible to put the ladder near the fence? If yes, how high should the ladder be to shot over the fence? Thanks much!
Hi Emmi!
Should be possible – probably 3-4 steps as well.
-Severin
Hi Julian, do you know where this photo is taken from: https://www.instagram.com/p/B8qisH0BXIm/?igshid=1bcr6ocyp1gs3 ?
Thanks much!
Hi Emmi!
Looks like a picture taken at the southern end of runway 34. Maybe ask the guy, if he can provide some details and info?
Would be nice to know, interesting spot.
Severin
Hello,
i would like to come to Vienna airport for one day just for plane spotting. I want to ask if it is allowed to take a walk from point 13 to point 12 (points from the map above) alongside the road?
Also if someone can tell me about the visitors deck / terrace, do i need to be passenger to get there or can i be just an airport visitor?
Thank you

I intend coming to Vienna to spot overnight (1400 – 1400 hours) in July but wont have access to a car. What do you recommend for taking pictures?
Today I was spotting, the Police came with Helicopters and Cars, nothing bad happened, but still a shame
Did they stopped and checked your ID?
Yes they did
Pretty strange. Where have you been?
Yeah the thing is, they said i was too close to the fence, you should stay on the road
Really strange as there are official photo holes within the fence.
Yeah, I was at the completely wrong side, at the vip terminal
Maybe before an El Al flight arriving?
Just back from a few days spotting at VIE with rwys 16 and 11 in use. here are a few observations. Korean Cargo were using B747 on both Thur and Fri. I used spots 10 & 11 a lot and found them very good up until about 1pm. The view from the rubbish hill at 10 is almost totally obscured by trees but there are still some good viewing spots on the high banks along by the dirt track. In the afternoon when the sun wasn’t to strong I found the car parks quite good but felt spots 1 & 16 didn’t work as I had no ladder and rwy 29 wasn’t in use.
Overall I enjoyed the trip with a good variety of aircraft and airlines.
Hello can you please tell me iframp tours still operate and forward me email address to contact many thanks
Hi, is there any place for night shots but somewhere around the fence not P3, P4? Thanks!
Hi, I think thats nearly impossible and I have never seen photos from the taxiways or runways. For latter its just to dark outside as there are no light poles nearby. Maybe around position number 3 you can photograph the line up.
Go to the terrace or parking garage. Thats the best solution.
-Julian
You mostly gave “from sunrise to ~10.00” as time info, do you mean 10 in the morning or in the evening?
And if it’s 10 in the morning, why is it that way? I would like to spot during the holidays and would use the spotting hill as my main spot. yet the Aircrafts I want to photograph (Qatar’s A350 and Emirate’s A380 arrive around 12-1pm (12:00-13:00)
Yes it is 10 in the morning. As all spots are on the eastern side and the light is getting poor from around 10-11 so they are useless from that time on.
-Julian
Hi
With regards to you presentation in “Runaway Usage” : can you be more precise about the landing from the city side? did you mean on runway 11?
Hi, yes thats runway 11.
-Julian
China Southern Cargo terminated their VIE routes some years ago, they no longer frequent the airport. Korean Air Cargo operates a nearly daily B777F, except Friday morning where the cargo flight is operated by a B747F.
Also, there are some changes in the list of pax carriers as well: of course Air Berlin and Niki do not fly anymore (ceased ops due to bankruptcy), however as a new intercontinental carrier, Thai operates to VIE with a B777. Emirates should be mentioned as the only carrier operating with a daily A380 flight to VIE.
Regarding terminal usage: Terminal 3 is used by Austrian and other European Star Alliance carriers, but also Air India. The other longhaul flights by Emirates, Qatar, Air China, China Airlines, EVA Air, Thai etc. operate from Terminal 1. Terminal 2 is currently undergoing a major overhaul, but it seems it will no longer serve as a separate terminal (but rather as a new security controll point + duty free area).
As for the spots:
1. For 29 departures, there is a way better spot than No. 1 (from where you could only take bellyshots of most shorthaul aircraft): park your car as described for Spot 1, but go along the concrete road until you reach the third column of trees to your left. There you turn left to the dirt road and follow it until the next intersection. You can get nice pics of departing aircraft “doing the 29 curve” (turning to the left as they climb out from rwy 29). Best time: basically all day long.
2. If you are bold enough, you can follow my instructions above, but at the abovementioned intersection of dirt roads, turn to the right and follow it until it ends at a hedge. Follow the hedge to your left until you reach the fence. At this spot, you WILL need a ladder to shot over the fence. Please DO NOT climb up the hunter’s lookout, as this is private property and strictly forbidden to enter. With a ladder, you can take shots of all kinds of taxiing movements along rwy 11/29, also smaller aircraft rotating on rwy 29, while the widebodies do rotate later down the runway – but then you can take pictures of them from behind.
3. Parking for Spots 4-6: the space described on the site is not legally for parking your car, so you are running risk of getting fined. Better continue driving north, cross the (almost never used) railroad tracks and park in the industrial compound to the right. Also, there is a cycleway along the road which you can use as a pedestrian as well. Cross the road to the side where the airport’s fence begins and walk back 100-150m to the south, until you reach a lone house with garden. This is the best spot for approach pics onto rwy 34 and can be used from around noon until sunset. You can even use the hedge and the trees around that house as protection against wind and sun. Be careful though: you are standing on a cycle lane, so be respectful and don’t block the cyclists’ way!
4. Spot 10 is not really legally accessible anymore: there is a fence, preventing spotters from climb onto the “Rubbish Hill”. However, the fence is quite damaged at several parts, so if you want to cross it, it won’t be difficult. Do it at your own risk though: in theory, it is illegal.
5. There is an alternative to Spot 11: park your car as described for Spot 11 but then instead of crossing the bridge, simply walk ahead towards the airport fence. You can even go up the grass field to your left. No ladder needed, you can spot here until about 11 and shoot rwy 16 approach.
Hi Viktor!
Thank you for this huge update… Information will be updated soon!
Regards, Severin
You are welcome! A short addendum: I just heard from spotter friends, that the Korean Cargo 747 operates not only on Fridays, but also on Thursdays – although I don’t know if this will be only short-lived or longer.
GPS coordinates of spots I mentioned above:
ad 1.: location of the spot is 48°06’59.3″N 16°31’56.7″E
ad 2.: location of the spot is 48°06’58.2″N 16°32’47.4″E
ad 3: park along the road beginning at 48°04’40.2″N 16°35’30.8″E
ad 3: location of the garden mansion aroung which you can spot 34 approaches is 48°04’37.2″N 16°35’25.2″E
ad 5: location of the grass field for 16 approaches is 48°07’28.0″N 16°34’53.6″E
Glad if I could help future spotting visitors of VIE!
Best regards,
Viktor
Hi Viktor, I tried to contact you via email. Do you received my message?
-Julian
Spotterpoint 2 & 3 are no longer available. There is a Gate on the Corner between 3 & 4 what is closed and the way is part of the airport.
Hi Giovanni, isn´t it possible to walk next to the fence to the positions on the field?
-Julian
The entrance in observation deck costs 5 euros.The ticket is for all day.You can go to eat or drink and visit again entire the day the deck without new ticket.Very beautifull view but is backlit all the day.
Are you sure it is for whole day? I was told it is for one hour only
As you are facing south you have backlit almost the whole day. But it depends on what you wanna photograph too.
-Julian
