Public transport in Vienna

transport is very efficient in Vienna. A VOR ticket gives you unlimited
access to all public transport in the city area of Vienna (this

including ticket-machines, which are located in every subway station
(working all the time, as long as the subway lines are open). There are
many kinds of tickets, trying to give people as much flexibility as
