extra time at Vienna Airport
 

My friend's three sons, aged 11 - 18, will have a six-hour layover in Vienna. Do you have any suggestions for how they might entertain themselves for that period of time without leaving the airport?
Many thanks.

There are several cafés and restaurants, including a McD.

And there are 10 lounges, some of them are exclusive, but there may be one or two lounges with public access (for a fee).

Otherwise, I am afraid, there is not much to do.

if they didnt have the 11yr old id tell them to catch the CAT train into the city
it's only 20 minutes
they couldve wandered round the GRABEN...a really nice area
six hours is too long to spend in an airport
the trains are safe...vienna is a safe city and just about everyone speaks english but id still not allow teens looking after an 11yrold to venture
poor kids
hope they like to read!

I'm only been in maybe 10 European airports, plus Montego Bay, plus numerous US airports, but I found Vienna's to be about the most boring I've experienced.
Perhaps they could have a Soduku contest.

if the kids like planes , airports etc.
a good airport tour is available at a minimum fee - 4-6 euro depending on age.

The Visitor Center is just a 3- 4 minute walk from the main terminal- added things to do there too.
A bus picks up tour participants at the Visitor Center- makes the tour an easy, safe and convenient adventure-

It takes about 1 hour.
