APR 27, 2005 (newstodate): In January-March, Austrian Airlines Group's cargo volumes totalled 34,607 tonnes, up 4.7 percent on last year.
But over-all the situation is not overly promising, and the Group's CEO has warned that the Group is unlikely to achieve the annual forecast due to worsening market conditions, primarily marked by over-capacity and rising fuel prices.
By 31 March 2005, one Airbus A319, one Dash 8-Q400 and one Fokker 100 was added to the fleet, while two of the total of four MD-87 withdrawn from operation at the end of 2004 were transferred to the purchaser, with the two remaining aircraft to be handed over this month.
As a result of the consistent reduction in unnecessary capacity and fleet adjustment, one Boeing 737, one Dash 8 with purchase agreement, and three Embraer 145 aircraft were leased out as by the end of March.
