"not bad but could be better"

(United Kingdom)

Trip Verified | Pretty standard business class offering with just 3 rows in business. Rock hard seat with middle seat kept free. Reasonable leg room. The flight is short but I wouldn't want this seat if flying for much longer. The plane - OE-LZO is only 5 weeks old so it is still spangly and new. USB A&C for each seat. The flight was a 6am LHR-VIE so breakfast was served. I didn't much like the blueberry cake thing, but the meat/cheese/tomato combo was decent. Croissants and rolls were offered. Excellent coffee. Overall, not bad but could be better.

"seat pitch is the worse"

(Brazil)

Trip Verified | No distinction at all between OS and a low cost carrier, not even the seat pitch is reasonable. Like most European airlines, they keep the middle seat unsold but the seat pitch is the worse I have experienced.

"inflight service was good"

(United Kingdom)

Trip Verified | Austrian had a very efficient check in and boarding system in Vienna to London. The plane cabin was clean and quite airy. The cabin crew where smart and efficient. They where very helpful in storing bags on a very full flight. The inflight service was good, with a selection of hot and cold drinks, with a snack box containing flapjacks and a piece of cake. The flight itself was smooth and even a 20 minute delay into London Heathrow did not dampen things to much.

"they care about this problem"

(Italy)

Trip Verified | I really like the Embraer E95 aircraft, it´s new, bright, and you feel it´s fresh, but these seats are really horrible, luckily I´m doing just short flights with it, the back is so hard which is really not a nice flight, but if you ask for pillows they will provide them you immediately, also if it´s too fluffy, but at least they show me that they care about this problem.

"very comfortable and clean"

(United Kingdom)

Seats were very comfortable and clean. Loved the red decoration. Space was more than enough for this flight, being more spacious than other A320 I have flown before, maybe because the seats were thinner, although they remained comfortable and supportive.

"comfortable in my opinion"

(Germany)

Austrian's A319/321 fleet are equipped with the same Recaro seats you find on Lufthansa and some other airlines. Although the seats are very slim, they are very comfortable in my opinion, not too hard and not too soft. The legroom is good even for tall people. As the aircraft doesn't have any entertainment screens there's no entertainment box cutting off some room under the seat in front of you. The armrest could be a bit wider and for longer flights an adjustable headrest would be nice. The seats also have only limited recline what some might find disturbing, but in my opinion it's sufficient for Inner-European flights.

"A320 fairly comfortable"

(United States)

A320 was fairly comfortable for the flight TLV-VIE, despite being almost 4 hours long. The only problem with this aircraft for me was that there was no entertainment. The food served was adequate, and the service was good. There was decent legroom, and the price was good. It was not a bad flight at all.

"seat was fairly comfortable"

(United States)

Flew the VIE-JFK flight as the second leg of a flight from TLV-JFK. The seat was fairly comfortable and the staff and food was pretty good. The IFE was not as extensive as other airlines I have taken, but that helped me get a bit of sleep on the plane as well. Legroom was not too tight, and the seat width was also not a problem. The price was good, and all things considered, it was a positive flying experience. I would have no problem flying Austrian and this plane again if given the chance.

Austrian Airlines customer review

(New Zealand)

Worst flight ever. Leg room was very limited and seat would not recline properly. Couldn't sleep a minute from BKK to VIE. We will definitely avoid this airline in the future.

These seats are great for European routes but there is no headrest but this is not too much of a problem. I found the flight comfortable.
