Austrian Airlines launched year-round direct flights between Hong Kong and Vienna, with up to five flights per week, operating with Boeing 777 aircraft, offering business travellers more options when visiting the two cities.
The duration of flights from Hong Kong to Vienna is 12 hours and 30 minutes, with a distance of more than 8,700 km.
“For many years Vienna has ranked among the world’s most liveable cities. Its cultural scene is firmly established at the international top table, and it is also one of Europe’s most important business hubs. These are all factors that are valued not only by the local population, but also by international business people, students and the more than six million tourists who visit the city each year,” says Norbert Kettner, Vienna Tourist Board managing director.
Austrian Airlines is part of Lufthansa Group, which operates flights to its major European hubs from six cities in Greater China, namely Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing, Qingdao, Shenyang, and Hong Kong.
“Direct flights between Hong Kong and Vienna will provide even more positive stimulus for the capital. The new route marks another step towards realising our 2020 tourism strategy which will see the addition of 20 direct flights to Vienna from major cities worldwide – thanks in no small part to the first-class support of Austrian Airlines, which has been our most important strategic partner for 14 years now,” adds Norbert Kettner. https://www.austrian.com/
