Slight shrinkage in Linz, hope for reversal still high


The volume of airfreight at Linz airport fell by 2.9% to 52,400 t in 2018. The shrinkage is due to the Ljubljana-Linz-Leipzig freight route being separated. It meant that all the capacity of the Upper Austrian market became available, and that, in turn, resulted in a decrease in transit freight. Local freight volumes moved by road feeder services rose by 0.9%.

 

The airport therefore overhauled and refocused its strategy over the last few months. The goal is to establish additional scheduled flight connections.

 

"The airport will get an opportunity to showcase itself from the end of April to the end of May when Turkish Airlines shifts its daily Salzburg-Istanbul flights to Linz, because of the runway closure in Salzburg." (ah)
