Vienna had 3,040 flights to and from the United States in the twelve months to June 2026, about four departures a day in each direction spread over 6 US routes, the busiest being Newark (EWR) with 718. EUROCONTROL has 79.5% of all its departures leaving within 15 minutes of schedule this year and 80.0% of arrivals landing within 15 minutes, from about 338 departures a day; on arrival punctuality that is 6th of the 41 European airports here with US service. Austria publishes no route-level punctuality, so the US routes below are described by frequency and carrier rather than by delay.
On departure punctuality Vienna stands 5th of 41: Stockholm Arlanda leads at 84.0% and Lisbon trails at 57.5%. By transatlantic volume it is 21st of the 45 European airports with a page here; London Heathrow leads with 81,419 flights. Punctuality and volume do not move together: a hub's transatlantic bank is scheduled around its own connecting flights, and the arrivals that feed it are where the delay comes in.

Punctuality
How Vienna is running
Over the seven days to 21 October 2026, 79.4% of departures and 81.6% of arrivals were within 15 minutes, in line with the year to date. 95.0% of scheduled flights have operated this year, the remainder cancelled or never filed. Air traffic flow management delay charged to the airport, the minutes the network held flights on the ground elsewhere to protect it, averaged 0.7 per arrival this year and 0.0 over the last week. These are whole-airport figures from EUROCONTROL's Network Manager, published daily and refreshed here with each build; the long-haul bank usually runs a little better than the airport average because wide-body schedules carry more slack.

| Yesterday (21 October 2026) | 83.7% | 87.5% | 96.0% | 0.0 min |
