IAG launched Level at Barcelona last June to compete with Norwegian in the low cost long haul market before setting up a short haul base in Austria last month.
Level now has four Airbus A321 based at Vienna and will fly to 14 European destinations, launching a twice-daily Gatwick service on July 17.
It also operates out of Barcelona and Paris: “We are committed to accelerating LEVEL’s growth and its fleet will increase to a total of seven A330-200 aircraft in Paris and Barcelona next year,” said Walsh, IAG chief executive.
IAG’s Q2 operating profits are up €45 million on last year from €790 million to €835 million, said Walsh.
