Tips for 25 min Connections
Confirm your connection actually exists as a ticketed itinerary, since Baden Airpark has almost no true connecting traffic and most passengers must exit and re-enter security for a separate booking.
Walking distance to any gate is under two minutes, so the terminal layout itself is never the bottleneck.
Ryanair flight banks cluster in early morning and early evening, so plan around those windows for tighter turnarounds.
There is no airside transit or shuttle system to worry about, unlike larger hubs.
If arriving from a non-Schengen point like the UK, allow a few extra minutes for passport control before rejoining the single departure hall.

High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
Getting Between Concourses
There is only one small terminal building, so passengers simply walk from arrival gate to departure gate across a single hall in under five minutes. There are no shuttles, trains, or airside transit systems, and no re-screening is needed for onward flights within the terminal since security is a single shared checkpoint.
