HISTORY
The airline was founded in 1957 when Air Austria and Austrian Airways merged, but its history dates back to 1923 when Austrian Airways was
founded. It was a state-owned corporation for the most of its history.
Austrian ordered the Sud Aviation Caravelle, its first jet-powered airplane, on February 18, 1963.
Following that, it adopted several types and modifications of the Douglas DC-9 aircraft, and by the end of 1971, Austrian had gone all-jet.
It added the DC-9-80, also known as the McDonnell Douglas MD-80, to its fleet in the 1980s.
Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, many airliners from Airbus, Boeing, Fokker, and other manufacturers were introduced.
Austrian joined the Star Alliance in the year 2000. Austrian Airlines was purchased by the Lufthansa Group in 2009.
Following its ownership, the company implemented both fleet growth and cost cutting measures as it reformed; apparent modifications
included route revisions, a new corporate design, and updated aircraft livery.
The company proceeded to restructure its fleet and route structure in the late 2010s.As a result of the COVID-19 epidemic, the airlines
temporarily halted services on March 17, 2020.
