The wet-lease partnership with Braathens Regional Airlines started in the summer 2024 flight schedule will continue into winter, facilitating the continuation of up to 13 weekly flights between Vienna and Klagenfurt.
In Tuesday’s announcement, Austrian Airlines’ CCO, Michael Trestl, said,
“We saw last year that many passengers value the connection between Klagenfurt and Hamburg. We therefore want to continue this success this winter and further strengthen Carinthia as a location. After all, we see ourselves as part of the Carinthian economy. With up to 13 connections between Klagenfurt and Vienna, we are ensuring the connectivity of Carinthians with Europe and the world.”
Also commenting on the new Klagenfurt-Hamburg service, Klagenfurt Airport’s Managing Director,
“The expansion of the seasonal Hamburg connection that was introduced last year shows what is possible with the right partner and underlines the trust in the airport and the Carinthian market. This is a strong basis for further route development. This connection is of great importance for tourist incoming flights to Carinthia, but of course also offers - in combination with the perfect transfer options via the Vienna hub - combination options for city trips to Hamburg.”
