Austrian Airlines offers daily flights between Tehran's Imam Khomeini Airport (IKA) and Vienna International Airport (VIE) ( company website).

"Austrian Airlines , a unit of Germany's Deutsche Lufthansa , is cancelling its services to Iran due to a lack of demand, a spokesman said. The carrier's last flight from Vienna to Tehran will be on January 13... Austrian Airlines suspended its service to Tehran for more than two months last summer because it could not be sure of getting its planes refueled there." (Reuters, "Two airlines suspend Iran flights as economy weakens," 1/13/2012)

The airline is a subsidiary of Deutsche Lufthansa, the flag carrier of Germany, which also offers daily flights to Tehran's Imam Khomeini Airport.

"Some major Western airlines were continuing to fly to Tehran, though, namely Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines, KLM and Alitalia... Austrian said in a statement that 'we plan to continue our flights VIE-THR-VIE up to five times a week,' and dismissed rumours that they would stop."
