Austria's railways swim against the tide, increasing overnight sleeper service at a time when other railroads are reducing them.

Los Angeles is Austrian Airlines' newest destination, while Las Vegas adds a second direct flight to Asia, its first to China.

Swiss and Austrian snowfall studies show that snow has been coming later and melting earlier, raising issues for resorts and the environment.

Among my best travel experiences ever were two overnight train trips in single compartments, from Venice to Vienna and from Budapest to Munich, both on Austrian trains. I'm very glad to hear it's they who will continue these services.

I'm glad, too, especially since that Zurich-to-Hamburg-via Salzburg route will also connect to Munich; we have a 2018 trip in planning that counts on a Munich-to-Hamburg sleeper as part of the route (Rome-Verona-Bolzano-Munich-Hamburg).
