The airline Eurowings is temporarily suspending the non-stop Cologne/Bonn-Klagenfurt connection at the beginning of the 2022/23 winter flight schedule period. The last flight for the time being is scheduled for October 30, 2022.

Carinthia Airport currently only has two regular scheduled connections: Austrian Airlines flies to Vienna and Eurowings to Cologne/Bonn. During the corona pandemic, there were repeated long periods when Klagenfurt had no scheduled flights at all. As of October 30, 2022, the Cologne/Bonn route will be temporarily suspended until December 20, 2022.

In addition, it is planned that from January 2023 only three circulations per week will be offered. The Monday flights are to be eliminated by the start of the 2023 summer timetable period. From April 2023, Eurowings wants to fly on Monday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday. The reason for the temporary cessation is weak booking figures.

Competitor Ryanair is planning to offer a total of four routes to/from Klagenfurt in the 2022/23 winter timetable. The company recently told Aviation.Direct when asked that it is satisfied with the advance booking figures, with London-Stansted emerging as the strongest route.
