on the return flight you only allowed a 40 mins aircraft change. The flights were suppose to to be all Austrian Airlines BUT TAP Portugal flew the second legs to and from Lisbon. So suitcase was LOST the TAP flight was 10 mins late arriving in Vienna so the GATE CLOSED 30 mins before takeoff. With a stop over in Vienna until 13.00 the NEXT day. So that caused a LOSS of work payments.
