SZG Salzburg

How deep the SZG board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from SZG. This reads the same 35 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound, what the clock here does to a Gulf working day and which of the destinations shut at night, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 34of the 35 destinations are flown by one airline
• 28destinations run less than once a day
• 1destination has four or more departures a day
• 57.1%of the destinations name Eurowings, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at SZG

16 airlines appear on the SZG board and they do not hold it evenly. Eurowings is on 20 of the 35 destinations, 57.1 per cent of them, and on 20 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 9.6 of the 22.4 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is Ryanair on 2 destinations. 14 of the 16 airlines at SZG appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

An airport held this tightly is quick to book and slow to recover: with 20 of the 35 destinations on one airline, the second aircraft on an SZG sector is usually another Eurowings aircraft, and when there is not one the desk is looking at another airport rather than another airline. That is why the alternate airports listed above matter more at SZG than the destination count does.

How much of the SZG board is daily

Of the 35 destinations, 7 are flown at least once a day and 28 are not, 9 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the SZG board is flown 2 times a week.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: SZG to Zakynthos Island (ZTH) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 10.3 of the 22.4 departures a day, 45.9 per cent of the whole board. With 80 per cent of the 35 destinations running less than daily, this is a board that rewards booking the outbound before the collection is confirmed rather than after.

The ten destinations out of SZG where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable. 18 further destinations sit in the same position and are listed in the board above.

The way back from SZG

The desk holds the return direction for 29 of the 35 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On two of them the return into SZG runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gaps are Riyadh (RUH) at 0.57 out a day against 0.14 back and Istanbul (IST) at 1.3 out a day against 0.71 back.

It runs the other way as well: Rome (FCO) files 0.57 a day back into SZG against 0.29 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at SZG

SZG keeps Europe/Vienna time, two hours behind Dubai in summer and three hours behind in winter, because the clock here moves and the Gulf clock does not.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 07:00 at SZG, so a nine to six day at each end overlaps for seven hours. That is wide enough to settle a customs question at SZG and still make a departure the same day.

The night at SZG

6 of the destinations from here carry a documented night restriction of their own, which is a departure time question at this end rather than an arrival problem at the other.

Into Frankfurt-am-Main (FRA) the door shuts at 23:00 local, so the last departure from SZG that lands inside it leaves around 21:54, on a modelled block of 1h 06m. Into Düsseldorf (DUS) the door shuts at 22:00 local, so the last departure from SZG that lands inside it leaves around 20:37, on a modelled block of 1h 23m. Into Hamburg (HAM) the door shuts at 23:00 local, so the last departure from SZG that lands inside it leaves around 21:30, on a modelled block of 1h 30m. Those three departure times out of SZG are worked backwards from the published window with the block time model this site uses everywhere, 720 to 880 km an hour by sector length with thirty minutes on the ground, so they are arithmetic rather than a timetable and the desk checks the published departure before it promises the landing.

Where SZG turns up on the rest of this site

The airport also sits behind the Austria country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport.

Ten courier postings name SZG as the airport a courier here flies from: Linz, Salzburg and Innsbruck.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with SZG already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 35 destinations above.
