CAT on the road!

City Airport Train is temporarily replaced by premium buses and increases frequency to every 12 minutes

From September 7, 2026, through October 31, 2027, the City Airport Train will operate for 14 months using comfortable premium buses to ensure that transfers between Wien Mitte and the airport remain as convenient and fast as usual during the main line closure.

During this period, a section of the route between Wien Mitte and Rennweg will be closed to all rail traffic due to renovation work. CAT is even offering a special service for its passengers: the frequency of transfers will be increased, with up to five buses running every 12* minutes in each direction per hour. The high-quality Setra coaches are provided by Blaguss Reisen GmbH.

Holders of the Wiener Linien annual pass, the ÖBB Vorteilscard, the KlimaTicket, a student ID or pupils can use the CAT for 7 euros each way; children 15 and under ride for free. Unfortunately, due to logistical reasons, the CAT City Check-In service cannot be offered during the suspension of regular service. 

 

*7 a.m.-7 p.m., buses run every 15 minutes
