Austrian Airlines is expanding its long-haul service in the upcoming summer flight schedule. From May, the airline will also fly three times a week to Montreal and New York JFK. Since Newark was already on offer, the total number of flights to New York will increase to a total of eight connections per week from May.

“With five destinations in North America and three in Asia, including Tokyo and Bangkok, our long-haul offer is on the rise again this summer,” says Austrian Airlines’ commercial director Michael Trestl. “Unfortunately, we’re still a long way from being at altitude. We hope that a rapid increase in the vaccination rate and a corresponding relaxation of travel restrictions will give us further impetus in the future. “

Last week Austrian Airlines announced an increase in the flight program for the summer.
