Does Vienna Airport Have Desk for Those Who Accidentally Flew to Austria Instead of Australia? Here’s a Fact Check As Fake Claim Resurfaces

A widely circulated social media claim, recently shared by businessman Harsh Goenka, asserts that Vienna Airport maintains a dedicated help desk for passengers who mistakenly flew to Austria instead of Australia. As per the viral claim, this mix-up is so frequent that the airport established a special counter for confused travellers. However, these claims are entirely false. Fact-checking platforms have repeatedly debunked the rumor, confirming that Vienna Airport does not have any such help desk, nor does it receive a significant number of passengers confused about the destinations. The story is a long-running internet hoax.
