Can anyone tell me where to buy the highway ticket if picking up the car at Vienna Airport? Will parking in smaller towns in Austria like Hallstatt, Garmisch-Partenkirchen, and Salzburg be as complicated as in Vienna, requiring purchasing various types of parking tickets in advance ? Austria Q&A
Do you guys who applied for Austrian visa receive the call from the embassy? My materials were received by the embassy last Monday and today it shows that my passport has been returned. But neither my husband nor our companies received a call. Is it directly rejected ? Austria Q&A

What is better, to pick up the car at Vienna airport and return it in Salzburg, or vice versa? Please help with advice from someone with experience. Because the train station is in the city center, I am afraid of traffic jams, and I am not sure if the airport is convenient either. I just want to drive around the lake for 3 days, pick up the car in Vienna, and return it in Salzburg ? Austria Q&A
Dear fellow car enthusiasts, I would like to ask for your advice. I have a 2-day trip to Switzerland and a 2-day trip to Austria. How should I purchase the highway tolls? Is it per day or per road? Should I buy them at the gas station convenience store before or after entry? What does the ticket look like? What if I need to enter and exit repeatedly? In addition, the rental car order does not have an additional driver. Is the insurance car, person, and trip-related? Do I need to buy insurance again when I pick up the car? Thank you in advance for the enlightenment of the senior ? Austria Q&A
Park on the roadside and check if there is a coin-operated machine. If there is, choose how many hours to park, insert the coins, print the ticket, and place it on the front windshield. Foreigners will check if there is anything printed on the windshield. If not, they may leave a parking violation notice. However, not all areas require parking fees, and the police may not always check. In urban areas, roadside parking generally requires a fee, but it is usually free on Saturdays and Sundays ?

It's really annoying to return the car in Salzburg. On the afternoon we arrived, we happened to meet an Austrian holiday, and everyone was off work early. Then we tried all kinds of ways to return the car by ourselves. The next day, we received an email saying that the left rear hub was damaged, so we rushed to the return point. They said the car had already been rented out. Yesterday, we received an email saying that we had to pay 320 euros in compensation. It's really not worth it! Fortunately, the insurance can be compensated, so be sure to buy insurance, otherwise you don't know what will happen ? Austria Q&A
I would like to ask everyone, I rent a car in Austria and will leave for Prague tomorrow. When I am close to Prague, can I buy the highway ticket at the convenience store of the gas station and stick it on the upper right corner of the windshield? Then when I drive from Prague to Budapest, do I need to buy the highway ticket at the gas station close to Hungary? The staff at the rental center told me that Hungary does not give highway ticket stickers. So what are the documents given? Do I need to carry them while driving? Thank you ? Austria Q&A
The whole journey is Road trip without buying train tickets, and then I heard that only trains are allowed to enter and leave scenic spots such as the Maiden Peak. I really want to ask my friends how to arrange it, such as 1/ where to stay (it is best to recommend a hotel name, I am really very grateful) 2/ what kind of train tickets to buy is cost-effective and convenient for freedom. We are one adult and one child. Thank you very much. Thank you very much ? Austria Q&A
