In the 2020/21 winter flight schedule, the Ryanair Group will serve 15 additional destinations from Vienna that Lauda did not fly to in the previous year. It is carried out by the group airlines Ryanair DAC, Lauda, Buzz and Malta Air.
In its media statement, the Irish low-cost airline again made a verbal all-round attack against Austrian Airlines and the Austrian government. The company accuses that the Lufthansa subsidiary is to be protected by the increase in the ticket tax, which is to take effect on September 1, 2020. Ryanair recommends that passengers buy tickets before this date, but it should be noted that this group of companies asked their passengers to pay for the fee in the course of the increase in the tax in Germany. Those who did not want to pay the increased tax had to stay at home.
Ryanair will be serving the following destinations from Vienna in the 2020/21 winter flight schedule:
Country | Destinations | Departure frequency |
Cyprus | Paphos | 2 times a week |

In response to the fact that numerous destinations in the above list are already served by Lauda or Ryanair from Vienna, it was explained that “new” refers to the fact that these were not yet offered by Lauda in the 2019/20 winter flight schedule .
