Flight TR710 was greeted with a customary watercannon salute upon arrival in Vienna. Key representatives from Scoot, Vienna International Airport, Austria Tourism, and other industry partners were present at the celebration.
As the only airline offering direct flights between Vienna and Singapore, Scoot will operate three times weekly services with its Boeing 787-8 Dreamliners between Vienna International Airport and Changi International Airport.
Scoot Chief Operating Officer Ng Chee Keong said: “We are excited to launch our inaugural flight to Vienna and be part of this momentous occasion with our partners who have made this possible. Vienna makes an exciting gateway for travellers from the Asia-Pacific to explore Europe’s rich history and heritage. For European residents, this new route also provides more options for customers to experience the vibrant sights of Singapore and other cities in Southeast Asia. We hope that this new connection helps to bridge cultures and inspire more customers to explore new destinations and create memorable travel experiences.”
With the addition of Vienna, Scoot now flies to 73 destinations across 18 countries and territories in the Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Europe.
