Tyrolean - Austrian transfer questions (baggage, time)

Hi all,

First of all, I apologize in advance for being a complete noob. I searched the forum and couldn't find relevant information, but that might just be me. Also, I have no idea if this is the right place, I just saw similar questions here.

That being said, I'm interested in a PRG->TLV trip with two segments:
1. PRG->VIE, Tyrolean Airways (VO)
2. VIE->TLV, Austrian Airlines (OS)
There's a 50 min layover in between.

It seems that OS owns VO, does this mean that the baggage will go straight through or will I need to claim and re-check it? Does anyone here have experience with similar situations?

If the baggage does go straight through, will I make the 2nd flight? Will the fact that I'm leaving Schengen area force me to stand on passport control lines for 2 hours?
I'm assuming that if I need to recheck my luggage the connection is impossible.

Thanks for your help!
