In case you are reading this in 2020, just take the hyperloop 🙂

One of the companies vying to make Elon Musk’s transportation dream a reality has signed a deal with the government of Slovakia to explore building a three-country Hyperloop. Crowdsourced engineering project Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HTT) will look into a route that links three European capitals. From Vienna, Austria to Bratislava, Slovakia, and from Bratislava to Budapest, Hungary.

While the idea of a three-country Hyperloop might seem extreme, the distances between the three cities is actually fairly trivial. Vienna to Bratislava is a 35-mile straight line, or 50 miles by current transport routes. Bratislava to Budapest is a 100-mile straight line, or 125 miles by transport. Both are well within the realm of possibility.

There are two companies running a direct bus connection between the airports.

  1. Flixbus. Their bus #910 runs once per hour and takes 60 minutes. A single ticket costs 5EUR (or 7.5EUR, depending on the time), pre-bookable on their website.
  2. Postbus. Their bus #1195 runs once every two hours and takes 75 minutes. A single ticket costs 8EUR, with no reservations available online.

As an alternative you could take a taxi from one airport to the other for about 60EUR. The journey should take around 40 minutes, depending on the traffic.

FlyNiki used to run a direct flight between the two airports, taking 10 minutes and costing 40EUR, but unfortunately it’s no longer available.
