salzburg query
I will be flying from Salzburg to Gatwick on Sunday.
The flight departs at 14:05. I'm bussing to the airport from the depths of the Austrian countryside, with the bus scheduled to arrive at the airport at 12:53.
Is this cutting it a bit fine? Or will I have plenty of time to clear security etc, even allowing for possible bus delays?
I'm in CE with hand luggage only.
Vielen Dank,
Hector B

You should be fine (although be grateful you're not travelling with me!). It is quite small and there is no lounge to linger in (although BA give you a voucher which you can spend in the outside bar on top of the terminal watching the aircraft).

It's a while since I was there but ISTR there's not much airside. So I'd definitely go to the bar landside if there's time!
Sometimes security can block up quickly if there happen to be tour groups run by one of the German travel companies - the rest of the time it's very smooth.
In winter I would allow much more time for any road transport to reach the airport in case of snow conditions.
