I'm flying a good deal of my flights in Europe and although there are lots and lots of destinations, there aren't so many options available - usually flights from Amsterdam, Paris and sometimes Rome, but very few point-to-point routes otherwise. I noticed that we had a few new airlines for quite a while now (Austrian, El-Al etc) but there are no routes available for them. I'd like to know when will those routes appear, because (at list from my point of view) a few new routes are needed. I love Vienna airport, but it's kind of dull to fly there only from AMS and CDG; also Innsbruck has a very nice airport, with a more challenging approach that i'd like to fly in and out of sometimes (i can only divert there now which is not too good of a deal)

Best wishes,
Ted

Austrian and EL Al no longer codeshare so there may be no flights available. Try looking for routes on Czech Air (OK) through Prague. Lyon (AF) also has some PTP routes.

Teodor, If you are looking for more European flights, you may want to check out our sister VA Air France. You should be able to transfer your seniority into a comparable program there.

Second Steven. The ONLY flights you wil find in our schd are NW and DL flights, and codeshared flights. Also, some people misunderstands what that means. Just because we have a codeshare agreement with any airline does not mean all flights will show. The only flights that will show are those flights that have a DL flight number, but is operated by that carrier (hence codeshare).
