I will be driving from Zurich to the Dolomites in northern Italy. I plan to cross into Austria near Diepoldsau Sz. and will be on Austrian Hwy E60 after I cross the border. What is the best way to obtain the Austrian Motorway Vignette for my trip?

The vignette can be bought online (if you know your plate number), it is often available at service stations near the border; if everything fails, in Austria is sold also at post offices and tobacconists.
Remember that the Arlberg highway tunnel this year is closed for maintenance from April 15th to November 22nd.

you will know your number plate as soon as you drive off the lot. I takes about 5 seconds - in English, on line. No fuss, no muss. Especially if you open it and do a dummy run first.
