The new stopover in Austria’s capital is an extension of the existing Saturday flight from Hanoi and Hong Kong. With Cargolux flight CV6716, Vienna International Airport will see the first ever landing of a Boeing 747-8 freighter.

Both Hanoi and Hong Kong are home to major production centers for the electronics industry and Cargolux expects this commodity to feature heavily on the Vienna route. Hanoi especially shows a growth in tonnage, which prompted Cargolux to introduce a third weekly frequency to the Vietnamese city in March.

Vienna Airport, a traditional east-west cargo transfer point, has reported a production of 60,036 tonnes of cargo for the first quarter of 2013. The airport’s revenues grew by about 5% in the same period. For Cargolux, Vienna is also an important gateway to Eastern European destinations; for many years, Cargolux customers have enjoyed fast and reliable road feeder services, connecting the major industrial centers in Eastern Europe with Vienna and the airline’s hub in Luxembourg. The airport offers round-the-clock operations without curfew and 24-hour cargo handling facilities.

Additionally, with its air freight service to Vienna, Cargolux is also able to curb its trucking activities from Austria to Luxembourg with all attached environmental benefits.
