airberlin topbonus - First time on FlyNiki - questions

I'll be flying FlyNiki for the first time in the next two days, ZRH-VIE and VIE-CDG.

Just some questions:


I assume I can do online CKI. Is there also an iPhone app (I couldn't find one) or can I use the Air Berlin app to check in?
From when on can I check in online?
How are they regarding hand luggage? One small rollable suitcase ("cabin compliant TUMI") + one computer bag, is that OK?
Can I collect points ("Avios") on my British Airways Executive Club card? Just asking because I know that AB is part of oneworld, but not sure about FlyNiki.
Anything else I should be prepared for? I am usually flying on LX and LH and have some status (HON) perks there. I don't expect limos and First Class lounges but I just want to know about some bad surprises, I don't know, like free seating or gates closing much earlier


Thanks!

No, absolutely not the first time in Vienna, but so far I always came in on LX/LH/OS

Anyone know why the DNATA lounge at ZRH is refusing entry to Oneworld Emerald members flying Niki?

Hi San Gottardo,

you can collect miles with the FlyNiki Flight from Vie to Zrh and also Vie to Cdg on your BA Executive Club.

When you al BA Executive Club Gold to can go to British Airways Lounges also the use in vie with the FlyNiki Ticket.

Hope this helps.
