Ryan Air connection to stay
The Ryanair connection between London and Linz in Upper Austria is not to be scrapped, it has been announced.
In the new winter flight plan announced by Ryanair there will be collections between Linz and London on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
Linz Airport is suffering form a reduction in flights. German airline Air Berlin announced that it was cutting the number of flights to Linz.
Between December 24th and January 2nd the Lufthansa route between Frankfurt and Linz has also been cancelled.
At the start of August the management of Linz Airport held a meeting where it was agreed they were going to attempt a new marketing concept and work with airlines to come to new arrangements.
Airport Director Gerhard Kunesch said the victory to keep the Ryanair route was a "significant victory".
The new Ryanair flights can be booked form today (Weds).
It is hoped by next summer that Air Berlin flights could be reinstated but that is dependent on the economic outlook of the airline.
