– Route: Vienna-Shanghai / Flight number: OS75 / Weekday: Fridays / Departure: 1.30pm / Arrival: 6am (next day)

With Austrian Airlines following Lufthansa and Swiss, all Lufthansa Group premium airlines are operating to and from China again.  „This clearly reflects the need for additional flights between mainland China and our home markets Germany, Austria and Switzerland,“ said Veli Polat, responsible for the Group‘s airline business in China. „We are confident that Chinese authorities will gradually allow for an increase in flights to meet increasing customer demand.”
