Getting from Vienna to Frankfurt

Has anyone used Niki, or Air Berlin airlines? We need to get from Vienna to Frankfurt to connect with a USAir flight back to the US next September. Do they use the main airports and terminals in each city? (It looks like if we take their early flight we would have about a three hour layover in Frankfurt to make our connection.)

Air Berlin and Niki are just great, much better service in coach than e.g. Lufthansa. Air Berlin is 2nd largest German airline and now has even started to serve NYC, MIA, LAX and other American cities. They only use the real, main airports. In Frankfurt Air Berlin fly into terminal 2, US Airways flys from Terminal 1 so you have to use the "SkyLine" people mover to get from one to the other. There is a pretty neat food plaza in T2 just across from the people mover's station from where you can overlook the tarmac and all the action going on. There is a small shopping mall and a Starbucks at the landing of T1's "SkyLine" station...
