The journey

Where the change is
Connections are made at Timişoara, Oradea, Cluj-Napoca, Arad. The gap between arriving and leaving is 54 minutes, of which about 5 is walking.
If the connection is missed
The tightest connection we sell here has a 17 percent chance of not being made on the timetable alone. Both legs are sold on one booking, so a missed connection is ours to fix and you are rebooked at no charge.
First and last departure
The first service of the day leaves Vienna at 06:47 and the last at 06:47, across 1 departures. The return direction keeps its own timetable, so the times back are not these times reversed.
