Be careful about parking in the city of Salzburg. Although some places have lines, only motorcycles can park there. Otherwise, it's 25 euros. Don't ask me how I know.. ? Austria Q&A

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 also rent from Sixt. In my opinion, in theory, it should be possible to go to the store to change the driver's seat, but the customer service told me that it's not possible. Now I need to cancel 2 days in advance, so I'm not sure whether I should cancel or not. Now the price of the same car has doubled ? Austria Q&A

Thank you all! I know the shuttle bus is faster from Linz, but I was wondering if there is a train that can go directly there. After all, it's more convenient for me to drive. I looked up and found that the closest Austrian countryside to CK is Freistadt, which is only about 50 kilometers away. However, I can't find any shuttle buses ? Austria Q&A

hi, my driving plan is to pick up the car at Munich airport and go to Wukun in Austria, stay for two nights, play King Lake and the surrounding Salzburg. Then it's GP, Fussen, Lindau, Rottenburg, Augsburg, Munich. I'm not going to take the expressway the whole way. Do I need to buy an expressway ticket in Austria ? Austria Q&A

Can I ask why I was charged 130 euros for self-service fuel in Vienna? My credit card shows a transaction, not a pre-authorization. When I called the service hotline for the gas station, they said the money would be refunded the next day. However, it's been two days now and the refund has not been processed ? Austria Q&A

Okay, thank you. Mainly, we have to give the driver who picks us up 25 euros as soon as we get off the plane. We're afraid that if we only have a 500 euro note, they definitely can't accept it. If we can pick it up at Beijing or the local airport, it's fine. I don't know if there is one or not ? Austria Q&A

The deposit for Megadrive was deducted by 1000 euros. When returning the car, everything was fine and they told me that the money could be refunded to the credit card within 24 hours. Now it's been 48 hours and the money hasn't been credited. Will there be a problem ? Austria Q&A
