From Budapest to Vienna by bus

There are multiple direct buses from Budapest to Vienna daily. The bus trip takes around 3 hours and tickets cost 26 EUR (29 USD) on average. There is additional travel time and cost in getting to and from the bus station, as well as the hassle of lugging your luggage around busy terminals.

From Budapest to Vienna flight

Another public transportation option is to travel by airplane which takes just 45 minutes. While the quickest option at first glance, you have to consider that you should arrive at the airport 2 hours before your flights, and since both airports are not in the city center, there’s additional time and cost getting to and from the airport. Flying is also more expensive, and you miss the chance to take sightseeing stops along the way and discover more of Hungary and Austria.
