Our codeshare partners
We also cooperate with so-called codeshare partners to enable us to provide our passengers with a more comprehensive offer to global travel destinations and departure times. These are airlines with which there is agreement on the joint use of flight capacities.
As a passenger, you book with Austrian Airlines as usual, but the flight itself will be operated by the partner airline. You can easily identify the operating airline by the flight number.
