In the 2023 summer flight schedule, Austrian Airlines will also no longer be making night stops in Klagenfurt. As a result, both the late evening flight and the early morning flight are no longer offered.

So far, the course pair OS943/944 has been "overnighting" in Carinthia. Transfer passengers have the opportunity to get to Klagenfurt as part of the Wiener Abendwelle or to catch the Morgenwelle in Vienna in the morning. In future, people will only arrive in the federal capital around 11:30 a.m. The last connection to Klagenfurt already leaves at 17:15 p.m. As a result, the connection to the Vienna hub is deteriorating. Also in Innsbruck Austrian Airlines will cancel the night stops at the beginning of the 2023 summer timetable period.

An AUA spokeswoman confirmed the forthcoming changes on the domestic route Vienna-Klagenfurt-Vienna to Aviation.Direct: “The night stop OS943/4 and the day route OS939/0 will no longer be served from the end of March 2023 (beginning of the summer flight schedule). We are thus keeping the program with 13/7 in the summer timetable 23 to summer 22".

The media officer also said: “The Nightstops are primarily intended to serve business travel from the federal states in the direction of Vienna, which, however, has not yet fully recovered in demand last summer and is also currently the case. Therefore, for reasons of efficiency, the night stops will be removed from the system in the 2023 summer timetable and capacities will instead be allocated to other flight times or connections so that there is no overall reduction in the flight program offered on the Klagenfurt, Innsbruck and Graz routes".
