-FIXME, translate+condense this info is from the german wikipedia site:
+Most international (IC, ICE, EC, RJ, RJX and NJ) and many regional trains (REX, RE, ..) stop here. Some international connections including those of the private train company "Westbahn" only stop at the second big train station "Westbahnhof". Both train stations offer connections to the municipial public transport network (see below).
 
-Alle Fernverkehrszüge der ÖBB, die von, nach oder durch Wien fahren, bedienen den Wiener Hauptbahnhof. Railjets verbinden ihn mit Ausnahme von Eisenstadt mit allen österreichischen Landeshauptstädten sowie mit Tschechien, der Slowakei, Ungarn, Italien, der Schweiz und Deutschland, wobei auf bestimmten Linien nach Deutschland ICEs eingesetzt werden. Der Fernverkehr in die Slowakei, nach Kroatien, Slowenien und Polen wird meist mittels ECs abgewickelt. Darüber hinaus verkehren Nachtzüge nach Belgien, Deutschland, Frankreich, Italien, in die Niederlande, Polen, Rumänien sowie in die Schweiz und Ukraine.
-
-Einziger privater Fernverkehrsanbieter ist Regiojet, der die Strecken von Wien nach Prag und Budapest bedient. Einzelne Züge von Prag beziehungsweise Brünn wurden von 2022 bis Juni 2023 über den Wiener Hauptbahnhof zum Flughafen Wien-Schwechat geführt.
+  The nearest airpot is <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vienna_International_Airport">Vienna International Airport (VIE)</a>, which - despite the name - is located slightly to the south of Vienna in Schwechat. There are frequent train and bus connections from the airport to the city, and fixed price taxi service to any address in Vienna.

-The venue is quite easily reachable by public transport, from both the airport and the train stations. From the main train station take the tram "O" line for 3 stations and exit at "Köblgasse" station. From there it's a few meters to Fasangasse 25.
+The venue is quite easily reachable by public transport, from both the airport and the train stations:
 </p>
 
+<p><b>From the main train station</b> take the tram "O" line for 3 stations and exit at "Köblgasse" station. From there it's a few meters to Fasangasse 25.</p>
+<p><b>From the Westbahnhof train station</b> take the metro line "U3" for 7 stations and exit at "Landstraße / Wien-Mitte" station. From there take the tram line "O" for 4 stations and exit at "Köblgasse". From there it's a few meters to Fasangasse 25.</p>
+<p><b>From the airport take the fast expensive train "CAT"</b> and exit at "Landstraße / Wien-Mitte" station. From there take the tram line "O" for 4 stations and exit at "Köblgasse". From there it's a few meters to Fasangasse 25.<b>The CAT train requires an extra ticket (24.90€ for both directions)!</b></p>
+<p><b>From the airport take regular local train "S7" or "REX7"</b> and exit at "Rennweg" station. From there take the tram line "O" for 1 station and exit at "Köblgasse", or walk. From there it's a few meters to Fasangasse 25.<b>The first part of the train journey from the airport to the city boundary is not covered by a ticket for Vienna, ensure you buy a ticket covering the full journey (2.10€ extra).</b></p>
+<p><b>From the main train station by foot or bike</b> leave the train station at the back exit "Hauptbahnhof Ost/Karl Popper Str.", turn left into Canetti Straße and follow it. Passing through the Schweizer Garden via Schweizer-Garten-Straße you will end up at the top of Fasangasse, which you can follow downwards until you reach number 25. The whole walk is almost exactly 1km: <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?engine=graphhopper_foot&route=48.184498%2C16.3805781%3B48.1921103%2C16.3863226#map=16/48.18833/16.38328">OSM route</a></p>
+
+<p><b>Tickets</b>: You can buy tickets and look up routes using the <a href="https://www.wienmobil.at">WienMobil website</a> or app. It's also possible to buy physical tickets at all train and metro stations, near the front entrance of trams and at tobbacco shops (called "Tabak Trafik"). There is no option to buy tickets in busses! Some ticket types have to be stamped once at the start of a trip when entering a metro station or a bus/tram - these are valid for a full one direction trip afterwards, including changing lines. There's also 24h/48h/72h or 7d passes which don't require per-trip stamping.</p>
+<p>The public transport operates every day and coverage is quite extensive. Some bus lines only run on weekdays, and metro and train service is replaced by night busses on weekday nights (those before Mo-Fr). On nights before Saturday, Sunday or public holidays, the metro lines are running all night.</p>
