What VIE to OSL looks like
The VIE to OSL sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Vienna VIE to Oslo OSL is a medium haul sector of 1,389 km by great circle, flown nonstop about twice a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 1,389 km, 830 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 2h 16m.
Vienna VIE is a major hub in the network held here, 200 scheduled destinations and 414.4 departures a day. Oslo OSL has 146 destinations and 378.2 departures a day.
Vienna and Oslo keep the same clock all year, so the arrival time is the departure time plus the block and nothing else.
The pair sits inside Europe, a corridor where the site already publishes 14 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on VIE to OSL from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| VIE to OSL | 2.29 | 16 | Austrian, Norwegian Air Shuttle |
| OSL to VIE | 2.29 | 16 | Austrian, Norwegian Air Shuttle |
Two carriers hold the sector, Austrian and Norwegian Air Shuttle, which gives a missed departure somewhere to go without leaving the nonstop.
Between them the two directions put about 32.1 departures a week on VIE to OSL, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 2h 16m block time on VIE to OSL. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to VIE | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At VIE before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| VIE to OSL in the air, estimated | 136 min | 6h 46m |
| Formalities at OSL | 90 min | 8h 16m |
| Delivery run in Oslo | 45 min | 9h 01m |
| Door to door | 541 min | 9h 01m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for VIE to OSL is 9h 01m.
A courier who leaves Vienna at 09:00 local is on the ground in Oslo at about 11:16 local and at the door by 13:31 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Oslo, the last useful departure from Vienna is around 13:29 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 78 of them join VIE to OSL.
| Connecting at | VIE to hub, flights a day | Hub to OSL, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Leipzig LEJ | 1.14 | 0.86 | 1,460 | 3h 58m |
| Prague PRG | 3.57 | 1.71 | 1,418 | 4h 07m |
| Copenhagen CPH | 7.29 | 22.29 | 1,394 | 4h 08m |
| Berlin BER | 8.43 | 3.71 | 1,404 | 4h 09m |
| Krakow KRK | 2 | 2.57 | 1,571 | 4h 19m |
| Warsaw WAW | 7.57 | 4.14 | 1,628 | 4h 26m |
One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at VIE in the afternoon actually flies on.
78 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Leipzig LEJ, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 6 times a week.
Through LEJ the routing covers 1,460 km against the 1,389 km nonstop track and takes about 3h 58m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 42m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Prague PRG at 4h 07m and Copenhagen CPH at 4h 08m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Vienna, Bratislava BTS is 48 km away by great circle and carries 88 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.
Restricted hours at either end
Widely documented operating restrictions, checked 2026-09-07. Exemptions and seasonal variations exist, so confirm with the carrier before relying on any of them.
Vienna VIE is shut to scheduled movements between 23:30 and 05:30 local, so a collection in Vienna that runs late does not simply catch a later flight, it waits for the morning and loses a working day in Oslo.
Vienna VIE, night restrictions: Movements between 23:30 and 05:30 local are limited.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for VIE to OSL in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
