NIKI customer review :  1 June 2013 by Kristoffer Michelsen   (Denmark)

CPH-VIE-CPH, 16th May outbound. 2 year old ERJ190, clean and comfortable seats. 3/4 full. Free drinks and sandwich. Chicken or cheese to choose. The little sandwich was okay for this 1h 35mins flight. 19th may inbound. Clean newer A320. Comfortable seats. Same service as the outbound flight. OK sandwich. All in all, I had a very good trip with them.

DUS-VIE. Very friendly and motivated staff. Best standard service of the German speaking airlines.

VIE - HAM. No leg room at all, crew and food was alright, but wouldn't recommend this airline.

NIKI customer review :  12 March 2013 by J Arnold   (Germany)

HAM to VIE and return. Booked as an Air Berlin flight it was operated both ways, without any information, by Niki. Absolutely no leg-space in economy class. Horrible. You couldn't even read the airline-magazine. Can't recommend this airline!

VIE-FRA-VIE. Everything went smoothly, only remark is that the chief flight attendant's English was not understandable.

VIE-TLV. Flight to Tel Aviv only half full, return 3/4 full, so lot of space to stretch out. Airbus A320 both ways, cabin and lavatories very clean. Both flights on time, FA's very friendly and kind. They served a snack on both ways which wasn't very tasty but offered water and soft drinks multiple times. Not much information from the cockpit. What bothered me most was the bad flight time to and from TLV. I would definitely use NIKI again, as they are a very nice airline, but only if flight time is ok.

CPH-Vienna return over the Christmas holiday. The plane and cabin was simple but comfortable. Flight attendants were cheerful and polite and information from the cockpit was good. They gave us a complimentary sandwich and drink which many of the major European Airlines do not do anymore. We were able to check one bag for free. All of this for 110 Euros per person.

I flew back from Wien to Paris. On the way from Paris, I was quite satisfied with the service. Unfortunately, on the return, we ended up with 4.5 hrs delay, and the way Niki treated us was awful. They first announced 30 mins delay but every 30 mins they added another 30 mins. Staff were unable to answer any questions. We were parked into a small waiting room before they finally let us out because delay was too long. They finally asked us to pay for food and drinks and that we would be paid back - which to now has not happened yet. Finally we arrived in Paris 0hr 30 - no more trains, we had to take a taxi. Overall it costs me and my girlfriend an additional 100€ to arrive tired in Paris.

VIE-ZHR-VIE and VIE-CPH-VIE. Onboard experience is great, seats are comfortable and crew are extremely friendly. As catering, they serve home-made bread with ham or cottage cheese. Simple, but extremely tasty. Soft drinks are free of charge, but I noticed they charge for alcohol. Some airport benefits for elite members of top bonus could be handled better.

VIE-CDG return. In and outbound flight were on time and the planes clean. The onboard entertainment system worked and showed two TV episodes. Service was nice, a snack and two rounds of drinks.

NIKI customer review :  4 August 2011 by Oldrich Janecek   (Austria)

VIE-ZRH-VIE. No problems with check-in, baggage and no delays. On-board service was okay - there was even a hot snack on the return evening flight. They call themselves 'low-cost', but the service is in my opinion better than many 'traditional flyers'.

NIKI customer review :  20 May 2011 by Samuel Muransky   (Slovakia)

VIE-CPH on Embraer for 45 EUR (baggage was free of charge). People tend to call this airline low-cost, but even though it indeed has great prices, it offers great quality of service using modern aircrafts and comfortable seats. Attentive and friendly cabin crew provided great food (it was morning flight, we received bread with ham or cheese - which was handmade and much better than hot breakfasts at other airlines; plus you can pay for extended breakfast) and two drink services (on 90 mins long flight!), soft drinks are free of charge. As always we were offered newspapers and magazines and what surprised me was that we received a pillow (which is everything but standard on European flights, even in business class).

NIKI customer review :  19 May 2011 by Samuel Muransky   (Slovakia)

VIE-DUS-VIE. Efficient check-in, very attentive cabin crew, modern aircraft, complimentary sandwiches, soft drinks and free checked baggage. Very nice experience, if you wish to have smooth and comfortable flight, book with Niki - much better than some non-lowcost airlines. All for very low price - even without promotion.

NIKI customer review :  13 April 2011 by H Khan   (USA)

Outstanding value for money. One way flight FCO-VIE. Served beverages and snacks equivalent to a full meal. Very courteous crews. On time departure and arrival. It was a family trip with my wife and my daughter, they felt the same way. Newspaper and magazines offered. It was late flight so I did not find one in English.

NIKI customer review :  15 March 2011 by D Hodson   (France)

Nice to Vienna. Return flight cost less than 100 euros including luggage. Was expecting budget airline but pleasantly surprised when drinks and newspapers were offered free of charge. Was even more surprised when a snack was included. Service was courteous and efficient. Embraer E175 was new and airy compared to similar aircraft. Regular updates from the cockpit. All in all a class act and not sure how they make any profit.

NIKI customer review :  3 March 2011 by Luiz v Atzingen   (Brazil)

VIE OTP with E190. Very good service onboard. Crew very nice and seemed to be very satisfied with their work - a good atmosphere on board. Coffee, drinks and very good sandwiches served free.

NIKI customer review :  20 January 2011 by G Duarte   (Austria)

VIE-FRA on A320. The service on board Niki (staff, free magazines, newspapers, catering) was excellent and better than the service offered by legacy carriers I am used to in Europe.

NIKI customer review :  30 December 2010 by G Cannarsi   (Italy)

Rome FCO-Vienna return flight. Outstanding quality, a low-cost flight with top level service. Clean and well-kept aircraft, crew nice, as are free beverages and snacks served during the flight. Newspapers and magazines also for free. I used the online check-in options and got to choose my seats with no charge. Terrific value for money.

NIKI customer review :  14 December 2010 by Steffen Frey   (Germany)

FRA - VIE return, A320. Niki offers exceptional value for money. The fare was comparable to most low-cost airlines, but unlike these, Niki fares include all services that are considered to be "frills" nowadays. For example, newspapers, magazines, sandwiches and several rounds of drinks are offered free of charge. Free baggage allowance of 20kgs. The cabins were clean and smiling FAs took care of their passengers.

NIKI customer review :  28 July 2010 by Andreas Himmel   (Austria)

MXP-VIE with new E190 - even full the plane feels spacious. Good Flyniki service (coffee/drinks & sandwich for free). Plane on time, cabin crew was friendly.

NIKI customer review :  27 July 2010 by Daniel Gruber   (Austria)

VIE-MUC-VIE on new Embraer E190, seated in row 2 and row 1. Boarding smooth, although a docking pier would be preferable in VIE. Cabin seats clean and looked new. The legroom was above average and comfortable for the 40 mins flight. Snacks (two very good "Demel" sandwiches) and drinks (soft-drinks, coffee, water) were served. On the way back to VIE, MUC airport was closed due to thunderstorms and the flight was delayed over 1.5hrs. In the meantime cabin crew offered hot Frankfurter sausages. You get free (mainly Austrian) newspapers and magazines after boarding. Flight attendants were friendly and helpful although they have a lot to do during this just 40-minutes short flight.

NIKI customer review :  3 March 2010 by D Peri   (Serbia)

BEG-VIE-BEG on new E190. Very good service on a 55 min route. Free luggage up to 20 kg, new planes, friendly but rather busy crew, choice of sandwiches and 2 rounds of soft drinks free of charge! Legroom was ok , leather seats.Most fully fledged carriers on short haul would be left ashamed by level of service offered by Niki.

NIKI customer review :  21 December 2009 by Samuel Muransky   (Slovakia)

VIE-INN-VIE on A320/319. Both flights on tim, with baggage allowance, friendly staff, good sandwiches (two per flight), non alcoholic drink selection free of charge, comfortable seats and great legroom. Everything I want from airline for as low as 83 EUR.

NIKI customer review :  7 October 2009 by M Flatscher   (Austria)

SZG-HER-SZG. Crew polite and friendly. One little downrating, because the audio system did not work. NIKI is one of the rare airlines who serve one free snack and drink on charter flights and provide newspapers free as well. Additional drinks or food has to be paid for.

NIKI customer review :  30 August 2009 by Stefan Mueller   (Australia)

VIE-FRA, quick online check in. Tidy cabin, very friendly FAs, who were busy but still had time for a short chat with the passengers. Free news papers and magazines. Free soft drinks and coffee, plus a fresh sandwich. Even some gifts for children were handed by FAs. This combined with a fair price is all what a regular passenger needs. Small minuses - hard seats, medium leg room and transfer by bus instead of airlink. Still much better than any other budget airline.
