In the past few weeks, Austrian Airlines has once again spread its wings with new frequencies. In addition to the launch of new, intra-European routes, the airline has announced big plans for Los Angeles. The carrier, which will serve the Southern California hub with direct service from Vienna, has announced plans to operate the route once-daily with its Boeing 777-200ER - the largest aircraft in its fleet.
The announcement comes as demand for transatlantic travel continues to soar, with airlines from both sides of the ocean adding new routes to attract leisure and business passengers to destinations across North America and Europe. This route will be the longest in Austrian's network, and will further bolster its limited presence in the United States. Austrian deploys daily 777 flights According to Cirium, an aviation data analytics provider, starting April 29, 2025, Austrian will fly one of its Boeing 777-200ER aircraft between Vienna International Airport (VIE) and Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) every day.
This heightened frequency will run for several months, and will end after the busy summer season on October 12, 2025. Given the start date in late April, only 2 frequencies will be flown between Vienna and Los Angeles in April. This means only 660 seats will be offered by the Boeing 777-200ER that month.
However, May, June, July, August, and September all have daily flights, so 30 or 31 frequencies depending on the length of the month. May, July, and August have.
