Intersky: Vienna to Friedrichshafen

The carrier: Intersky

Upside
Quirky (and growing) route map includes some unusual destinations.

Downside
Limited route map and strangely located hub.

About
Our pick for best budget airline with a fun, hipster vibe is a smallish enterprise, based in Friedrichshafen. Intersky flies from its Friedrichshafen hub to several cities across western Europe. The airline also operates a handful of routes beyond its hub. Notable destinations include Elba, Zadar, Naples, and Nice.

Baggage
* Carry-on: One piece of hand luggage not to exceed 5 kg.
* Checked: Up to 15 kg of luggage. You are charged €5 per kg over the weight limit.

Seating
Seats are reserved on a first-come first-serve basis during check-in.

Tip
If while trekking to the airport, you skip breakfast, never fear. Intersky has one of the more extensive, reasonably priced—and at turns, witty—in-flight menus we've seen. Check out "After Work Party". That's what we're talkin' about!
