Check-in at the counter of Vienna Airport

2. Once you have arrived at the correct counter, check-in will be carried out by an airline employee. For check-in, the employee needs your flight ticket, a passport or identity card and, depending on the case, entry or Corona documents.
3. You can then place your checked baggage on the treadmill – if you have one. In this case, the piece of luggage is weighed. If you exceed the maximum permitted weight, you will usually have to pay an additional payment for the excess weight.
4. At check-in, you will receive your boarding pass as well as the ” ticket” for your checked baggage. Now you can go to the security checkpoint.
