Connecting Austria to the UK & Ireland...
Welcome to the B2B site of the Austrian National Tourist Office UK & Ireland! Our aim is to connect professionals from the UK and Irish travel trade with Austrian tourism suppliers through a variety of channels including online information, trade shows and press events.

The Austrian tourism industry enjoyed a strong year in 2007, as annual visitor arrivals to the country topped 31 million, representing a rise of 3.3% over the previous year. Massive early snowfalls and excellent Easter conditions provided a solid white base for the best ever winter season in Austria. For the first time Austria welcomed more than 10 Million winter guests from abroad, of which 491.700 came from Great Britain. In comparison to the previous winter this represents an increase of 2,7%. Arrivals from the Irish Republic have increased by 11,4% to 56.200. This trend in positive numbers is expected to continue with this summer's high profile football event and the Joseph Haydn bicentennial in 2009, both expected to receive heightened media coverage.

We are always pleased to receive enquires and look forward to hearing from you!
