Austrian Airlines starts flights to Cancun
Austrian Airlines is already preparing for next winter with a comprehensive tourist offensive. From October 24, 2021, the Austrian home carrier will take off twice a week for Cancun in sunny Mexico. This holiday destination was last flown to in 2006. Mauritius will also be included again in the flight program in the coming winter after a corona-related break. Austrian Airlines takes off for the sunny island in the Indian Ocean up to three times a week.
The range of flights to the Maldives will be increased by an additional flight per week this coming winter. Austrian Airlines takes off for the island's capital Malé three times a week. Cape Town will also be included in the program again with two flights a week. The Austrian airline uses a long-haul Boeing 777 aircraft to all four destinations.
Sales director Michael Trestl is optimistic about the future: “People are longing for vacation, long-distance travel and the sea. That is why we will focus on attractive long-haul destinations in the upcoming winter flight schedule in order to satisfy our passengers' desire to travel. I am confident that by then so many people around the world will be vaccinated that travel will be possible again without severe restrictions. "
On the Austrian Airlines website, passengers can find information on the topics of travel in times of Corona, the obligation to wear a mask, country-specific travel regulations and flexible rebooking regulations. The information is updated on an ongoing basis.
