The Austrian Ministry of Health will continue to land machines that have started in North Rhine-Westphalia. Previously there were rumors that a ban could be pronounced.
After the massive corona outbreak in the Gütersloh district, Austria has now issued a travel warning for all of North Rhine-Westphalia. Many even expected a complete landing ban for aircraft from this area. But this assumption does not come true.
“There will currently be no landing bans from North Rhine-Westphalia,” the Ministry of Health in Vienna announced yesterday. However, the situation would be continuously reassessed, as aero.de reported. From the Ministry's point of view, the rest of Germany has a lower security risk - however, “non-essential trips” to the country are not recommended.
