Austrian Airlines adds further destinations to its flight schedule. Starting today, Austria's home carrier will be flying to Erbil again. An aircraft from the Airbus A320 family will take off three times a week between Vienna and the city in northern Iraq. This route is mainly used by transfer passengers changing planes in Vienna, for example from or to the USA. At the end of the month, Austrian Airlines will also add Cologne to its program as a further destination in Germany. From 31 August, the city on the Rhine will be back in the schedule with up to two daily connections.
