With the increase in demand and sustained load factor of 75-80 per cent throughout the year, Austrian Airlines is operating five flights a week from November last.
The group, which has the average fleet age of 6.3 years, is operating with all sizes of new generation aircraft like A-340, A-330, B-347 and B-767.
