Austrian Airlines has launched a new weekly Wednesday charter flight between Dublin and Vienna operating in May and June using Airbus A320 and Fokker F100 equipment AUA9751 arrives Dublin 1005 AUA9752 departs Dublin 1050. This new service has been organised by Austrian tour operator Raiffeisen Reisbüro.
The new service is expected to deliver over 2,500 Austrian visitors, who will spend one week on the island of Ireland (those who arrive on the Dublin flight will spend four nights in Dublin and three nights in Northern Ireland). Working closely with airlines to build demand for routes is a key priority for Tourism Ireland and this new service will provide a welcome boost for tourism from Austria in the shoulder season.
Niall Gibbons, chief executive of Tourism Ireland, said: “The introduction of this new service from Austria is welcome news indeed; it will certainly expand travel options for Austrian holiday and business travellers who wish to visit the island of Ireland. As part of our ongoing co-operation with airlines and airports, Tourism Ireland will undertake advertising and other promotions with Raiffeisen Reisbüro, to maximise the demand for the service to Dublin and Belfast and boost tourism to the island of Ireland.
