- If not, do I get claim at FRA, recheck there to VIE?
- Since this is a non-schengen to shengen transfer, how is the transfer from 1-B to 1-A - assume I need to go through passport control and then security?
- If flight is on time (and it seems it usually is early), I have 130 minutes for transfer - is this doable or a problem?
Thanks for any help you can give!
1. Yes -- I do this as par for course, except last month due to issues at euro airports. But in normal times no problems.
3. Can transfer without going through security -- you hv two options, going via tunnel or bus to Schengen. However, if you are not a Euro citizen, passport control could take longer.
4, Ultimately should be doable.
