Austrian Airlines

At Austrian Airlines, we embarked on a 21 Day Challenge to transform our meeting culture and improve #efficiency. 🚀 Recognizing the need to reduce unproductive meeting time, we introduced easy-to-implement tools and actively engaged our colleagues. This has already resulted in significant time saved and made meetings more productive. In fact, half of the participants were able to reduce their meeting time by up to 25%. ⏱💪 By adopting a pragmatic and playful approach, we've shown that small changes have big impact. While our journey is still ongoing, we are happy to share our learnings and insights so far. You can read the full story in the article below. 📰👇 

Austrian Airlines closed the first half-year of 2024 with an adjusted EBIT of EUR -62 million. This result fell well short of expectations. There are many reasons for this weak start to the year 📅. These primarily included the wage dispute and the situation in the Middle East, the weather situation in Europe, the disproportionately rising location costs coupled with stagnating ticket prices and two lengthy outages in the Austrian Airlines fleet. In addition, the investments in fleet growth on long-haul routes with the new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners were also reflected in the result for the first half of 2024. Now it's time to put all our energy into the second half of the year ✈️. With the two new Dreamliners, which have been in service for several weeks now, primarily to North America, and the three new destinations Bremen, Tbilisi and Boston, the way is paved for a high double-digit result for the year as a whole despite the weak first half of the year 🤩. Once again, we would like to thank our guests who flew with us in the first half of 2024. We were able to take 6.5 million passengers to their desired destinations in the first six months, six per cent more than in the first half of 2023 🛫💪🏼.

It’s a match: All eyes on…Schönbrunn Palace! 🏰🌟  Our newest fleet member, the B787-LPM, now proudly carries its official name in collaboration with the world-renowned Schloss Schönbrunn.  For the inaugural collaboration of our new Dreamliner naming concept, “Highlights of Vienna”, we could not have asked for a better partner to fly around the world with us and strengthen our Austrian brand ✈️. With over three million visitors a year, Schönbrunn Palace is Austria’s most visited sight, rich in Austrian heritage. It aligns perfectly with our brand and our positioning as the Austrian national carrier. Cheers to this meaningful collaboration with Schönbrunn Group! 🥂We cannot wait to take the Austrian spirit and heritage even further into the world with our OE-LPM and Schönbrunn Palace! 🇦🇹 

Ciao, Servus & Welcome to the family! ❤️🛫

Behind the scenes in Teruel ️✈️ The newest fleet member of Austrian Airlines, the Dreamliner OE-LPM is already unmistakably wrapped in the red white livery. ❤️  But how is an aircraft actually painted? How long does this process take? And how does the removal of the previous paintwork work? 🤔 We have an exciting behind the scenes video, taken directly from the paint hangar, with the answers. 🎥 Every step is explained in detail by our Certifying Technician, Christoph Kopecky.

Award-winning „Restfett“! 😋 ✈️ Together with Virtual Identity, we were honored with the DPOK (Deutscher Preis für Onlinekommunikation | German Award for Online Communications) in the category of Transport, Traffic, and Logistics. Our winning social media campaign, "Restfett," creatively explained the benefits of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) made from used cooking oil. With the charm of this ambiguous, typically Austrian expression, the campaign significantly raised awareness about CO2-reduced flying with SAF. 📢 The DPOK awards the most innovative and creative digital projects, and we are honored to be recognised by a jury of over 45 experts. This award is a testament to our commitment to responsible and engaging communication. ❤️
