Austrian Airlines (OS, Vienna) is now actively looking for a new partner that will take a large stake in the carrier and has entered into multiple legal fights with Sheikh Al Jaber about the failed transaction earlier in the year. Air China (CA/Beijing), Emirates (EK/Dubai), Lufthansa (LH/Frankfurt Intl) and Royal Jordanian (RJ/Amman Queen Alia) have reportedly shown interest so far. AUA will give up its Vienna-London City route on August 18 and its Vienna-Chicago route on October 25 and has delayed the launch of new routes to Jeddah and Riyadh to early October. It has also announced plans to ground 3 or 4 aircraft by the end of the summer season. In other news, it will however resume weekly B767-300ER service from Vienna to Malé on November 5.
