How can I change the date or time of a flight with Austrian Airlines?

The available options depend on the fare you purchased. Before confirming, compare the new itinerary and any fare difference or change charge. Austrian currently says most agency bookings can be changed online, so an agency purchase does not automatically rule out self-service. However, a booking with special services may need the Service Centre. If you have already checked in, cancel online check-in before changing the flight or get help with that step. Review the passengers carefully when only part of a group is traveling on the new date. Complete any required payment and retain the emailed replacement e-ticket. Then check seats and other requested services, because they may need to be selected again. Do not mistake the ability to change the flight for permission to replace the traveler: passenger names cannot be changed within this rebooking process. A genuine name discrepancy needs separate assessment.
