Vienna To Pristina

Posted by on

Hello I am flying out of Alaska tonight with a final destination of Kosovo. My three first flights are part of a round trip I took to get to Alaska. I have 4 flights in total and the first 3 that are part of a round trip take me to Vienna. The last flight is a one way stand alone flight with eurowings. When I get to Vienna how do I acquire my boarding pass if I’m already through security? I can’t get boarding passes online through Eurowings I believe. Just wondering if anyone knows where to go once I land in Vienna to get my boarding pass for my final flight. Thank you

Why are you asking about security when it is really immigration and customs you should be asking about?

So, you are flying from Alaska, USA to Vienna (3 flights, but the details don't matter).
You then have a 4th Flight Vienna to Pristina. This is a totally different booking.

In that case your bags will only be checked through to Vienna. You will have to check in again for the last flight to Pristina, and that will be from the public area ("landside").
The sequence will be.

  • Land Vienna, disembark.
  • Through immigration (passport control for entry to the Schengen Area) - luggage pick-up - through immigration.
  • Exit to public area ("Arrivals")
  • Double back to departures and find the Eurowings desk to check in.
  • Through (exit) passport control and security. Back to "airside".

I hope you have allowed enough time for all this.
The only way you could avoid this is if you already have your Pristina boarding card (online check-in) AND you only have hand luggage. Then you can stay "airside" and not legally enter Austria, but you probably still need to go through security to get from arrivals area to departure area.
