Hi, can anyone advice on possible transport service options, other than taxi/rent-a-car, from Vienna to Lackenhof? We are 3 adults and 3 kids, and we have ski/snowboard equipment with us. Taxi/Rent-a-car is very expensive for our needs/dates, while public transportation is pretty complicated with kids and luggage, so we are looking for alternatives... :) Thanks!

Hi Jmccoy, welcome to J2ski.
I had a look at this, and where usually there is good info on the DBB and OBB websites, for this requirement, there is not much on offer.
Is it Vienna city, or the airport that is your start point?

What are the start/finish dates? Time that you will start travel?

The info so far indicates that people carrier/minibus hire would be best, but you may need to search for the right deal. Sometimes this can be a hire company deal, or a quidco, or vouchercode.

A little more info may get the J2ski hounds sniffing for an answer.

Thank you, Dave Mac.
Viena city is our starting point, on 30 January, morning. The return is on 6 January afternoon, with the Vienna Airport as the finish point. I checked some rent-a-car options and some taxi services, and all are quite expensive( above 500 EUR and much more)...
If you have any other suggestion, we'd appreciate a lot!

Focussing just on car hire, your pick up and drop off dates may seem a tad unrealistic! I am guessing the pick up is 30 December. I have made the assumption that the drivers would go to the airport and pick up the car ~ you could check a drop off charge.

Looked up two companies.

Rentalcars.com offered a Renault Traffic 9 seater and a VW Saran 7 seater, both at £416.

Arguscarhire offered a Mercedes Vito 9 seater at £405.

Now, if you use quidco, they are offering a 7% cash back on arguscarhire. This should bring down the price to £377, assuming the one links with the other. (They do not always do so)

With a deeper search, might be able to do better on the basic cost, but if you can get the quidco cashback, I doubt we would do much better than that.

Moneysupermarket.com would be my normal start point, but it was playing silly beggars today, so just used google.

Let us know if you make progress.

Thanks! And, yes, I meant 30 December. You assumed well. :)
