New Airline at Vienna Airport with a New Destination: Germania Launches Flight Service to Rostock on the Baltic Sea
 
Effective immediately passengers have a new destination at their disposal when flying from Vienna. Starting today, Friday, May 26, 2017, the German airline Germania offers flight connecting Vienna to the Hanseatic city of Rostock. The new route will be served every Friday and Sunday deploying an Airbus A319. The new flight connection was officially opened today by Germania and Vienna Airport within the context of a photo session.  
 
“We are pleased to welcome a new airline at Vienna Airport, namely Germania. The new route to Rostock makes it even easier for passengers to reach the northern part of Germany. The Hanseatic town on the Baltic Sea is well known for numerous cruises, and Rostock is the perfect starting point. The large northern German city is also considered to be a culturally and economically important city in the southern Baltic Sea region, and offers impressive Hanseatic architecture”, says Julian Jäger, Member of the Management Board of Flughafen AG, expressing his pleasure with the new flight connection.    
 
“We offer travellers from Austria a short trip to the white Baltic Sea beaches and thus a new opportunity to take a relaxing vacation by the sea. Moreover, the trip to the cruise port of Warnemünde improved, making it easier to take discovery trips in Northern Europe,” says Claus Altenburg, Director Sales at Germania Airlines.  
 
Twice weekly to Rostock
Germania serves the Vienna-Rostock route twice a week (Fridays, Sundays). The flight of the German airline will depart from Rostock at 11:50 a.m. and land in Vienna at 1:20 p.m. The return flight leaves Vienna at 2:05 p.m. and arrives in Rostock at 3:35 p.m. Contrary to the general trend, the green-white airline offers its tried and tested service on board including free snacks, soft drinks, magazines and at least 20 kilograms of free luggage.
