Austrian Airlines has announced plans to increase its flights to Los Angeles to a daily service this summer. The airline will operate the route from Vienna using its Boeing 777-200ER, the largest aircraft in its fleet. This decision comes amid rising demand for transatlantic travel, with airlines on both sides of the Atlantic adding new routes.

Starting April 29, 2025, Austrian Airlines will fly daily between Vienna International Airport and Los Angeles International Airport until October 12, 2025. Cirium, an aviation data analytics provider, confirmed that only two frequencies will be flown in April due to the late start date. However, daily flights are scheduled for May through September.

The airline last operated this route on a daily basis in 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic affected global travel patterns. "This route exemplifies the current popularity of transatlantic travel," according to Austrian Airlines.

The Boeing 777-200ER is configured with three classes: business class with 30 seats offering a pitch of 44 inches, premium economy with 40 seats at 37 inches of pitch, and economy class with 258 seats at a pitch of 30 inches. The aircraft can accommodate up to 330 passengers and is powered by General Electric's GE90 engines.

Currently, Austrian Airlines serves six U.S. destinations from Vienna: Los Angeles, Chicago-O'Hare, Washington Dulles, New York/Newark, New York JFK, and Boston. Its long-haul fleet includes three types of Boeing aircraft: the Boeing 777-200ER, Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, and Boeing 767-300ER.

Los Angeles represents Austrian's longest route at over 6,000 miles. Other long-haul destinations include Tokyo Narita Airport as well as Mauritius and Shanghai among others.

As part of Lufthansa Group, Austrian Airlines benefits from access to an extensive network beyond Europe through partnerships within the group.
