  There are two train options from the airport to the city: the City Airport Train (CAT) and the Austrian Railways (ÖBB) trains. The CAT is faster, reaching the city center without stops, but is more expensive (€14.90) compared to the ÖBB trains (€4.50).
  
  Alternatively, you can take a taxi, which takes approximately 20 minutes to reach Vienna. However, fares can be €40 or more. Ride-hailing services such as Bolt or Uber may also be available depending on your arrival time.
