On September 30, 1957, the Austrian Airlines AG was founded and took on 31 March 1958 the scheduled operation with four chartered Vickers Viscounts 779 on the route Vienna-London. After the heyday of aviation, the Austrian Airlines share was launched on the Vienna Stock Exchange in 1988. In the course of the 1990s, the holdings in Tyrolean Airways and Lauda Air gradually brought about the consolidation of Austrian aviation. In 2000, Austrian Airlines joined the global alliance "Star Alliance". In 2001, Austrian Airlines began a successful turnaround program. In 2004, the Focus East initiative was launched. As a result, Austrian Airlines quickly became the market leader in European transfer traffic between Eastern and Western Europe. Austrian Airlines was the first Western airline to open regular scheduled services to cities in this region. For example, to Kiev, Odessa, Dnepropetrovsk, Kharkov or Timisoara (Timişoara). The route network of the Austrian Airlines Group now covers 130 destinations worldwide. With a fleet of more than 100 aircraft, the Austrian Airlines Group carried 10.8 million passengers in 2006. "We fly for your smile" is the motto under which the Austrian Airlines Group offers a broad and attractive range of services in the liner, cargo and charter sectors. In the course of 2006, the Austrian Airlines Group implemented a consistent quality and service offensive. It began with established service and comfort elements and continued with Do & Co's top-of-the-range economy and business class flights and the free Miles & More program. In 2007, the corporate headquarters, which had been located in Oberlaa for 29 years, moved to the new head office at the airport, directly to the Austrian hub and closer to customers and product. The "We care" idea is successfully practiced at Austrian both outside and inside.
