Bonn airport question

I will be flying into Bonn, Germany's airport, in an in-bound flight from Vienna in EuroWings Airline. I have 2 hours to connect in Bonn with a flight back to the US. My question is to anyone familiar with the airport in Bonn, will 2 hours be enough to collect a checked-in bag from the previous flight from Vienna and re-check it in for my flight bound to the US? My discounted ticket does not allow me to check it all the way through to my final destination. I have to collect any checked-in bag and re-check it in for the next flight.

Also, if anyone has traveled in EuroWings, how are they as a carrier and any advise or tips to share? Thanks!

That should be enough as long as the flight is on time from Vienna.
And your bags come out quickly. Eurowings is in terminal 1.
Not sure if you need to change terminals?
I flew Eurowings from that airport last May. But it was not transatlantic.
It was a non-descript experience. I think it is better airline than United though just to give you an idea.

United and Eurowings are both 3-star rated by Skytrax, but Eurowings has a 4/10 rating based on customer reviews vs a 3/10 rating for United.

EuroWings is the budget airline brand of Lufthansa - they used to be called GermanWings but changed their name after a freak accident when a suicidal pilot deliberately crashed a plane in the Alps and killed a bunch of people. They're a pretty standard European no-frills airline. The big thing to be careful of is that you don't go over the luggage limit for size and/or weight, as otherwise you will be charged a heavy penalty fee.
