From June 1, 2021, Austrian Airlines will fly up to twice a day between Vienna and Milan Linate. At the same time, the previous connection to Malpensa will be discontinued. A few weeks ago, the carrier was able to secure slots at the metropolis' inner-city airport.

AUA was also given take-off and landing rights for a connection between Salzburg and Linate, but a spokesman told Aviation Direct that - unlike Vienna - this will not be used. Slots in Linate are extremely popular because the airport is located within the urban area of ​​Milan.

"Linate is much more comfortable for our passengers, especially for business travelers from Milan and the surrounding area," says Sales Director Michael Trestl. A mix of Embraer 195s and aircraft from the A320 family will be used on the route.

    Aha. Didn't Aviation Direct just write that AUA won't use the slots?

      The Linate-Salzburg slots will not be used. Linate Vienna does. We had reported that before.
