Austrian Airlines makes changes to US services in 2020

Austrian Airlines plans to adjust its US network from summer 2020, by adding 4X-weekly Vienna-Boston Logan International (Massachusetts) Boeing 767-300ER services from the end of March. The carrier will increase frequencies to 6X-weekly from mid-April. Austrian Airlines CE Alexis von Hoensbroech said previously that the intercontinental business is well developed, with passenger volume up by 7% during the first 9 months of the year, “but it is not very profitable. Miami will be dropped from the network and will be replaced with an additional intercontinental destination,” von Hoensbroech said, referring to Boston. Cutting Miami services will enable the airline to upgrade daily Vienna-Chicago O’Hare services to Boeing 777-200ER from the end of March. Until now, a Boeing 767 was used on 2 of the 7X-weekly flights. <br/>
