Would you book a connection through VIE on purpose over a tighter routing?
I am comparing two itineraries and one of them connects through Vienna Airport with a longer stop.
The appeal is easy airport train link plus good medium-stop city access. The hesitation is late-evening transport assumptions.
Would you intentionally route through Vienna if the total trip time was a bit longer but the layover quality looked much better?

I would absolutely choose VIE on purpose if the airport quality meaningfully lowers the chance of a chaotic connection day.
The best itinerary is not always the shortest one. Sometimes the calmer hub is worth far more than the saved hour on paper.
That said, if late-evening transport assumptions is tied to the season or the exact bank of flights you are using, I would model that before committing.
A longer routing only wins when the extra time actually buys comfort, flexibility, or a better recovery window.
