Austrian Flies In To Support "The Fleet"

Austrian Airlines is an exciting new signing for the Fleet as both brands are used to competing with top league teams “Just like “The Fleet”, we have to compete with the big players, so this partnership is a natural fit for both of us.” States Gudrun Sullivan, Deputy General Manager, UK & Ireland, Austrian Airlines.

An early association with football makes perfect sense given that Austria will be co-hosting the UEFA Championship Finals with Switzerland in 2008. “By making this our first football sponsorship in the UK we hope to raise awareness of Austrian Airlines and encourage fans to travel with us to our beautiful capital, Vienna or to any of our 130 destinations worldwide”

Conference teams now receive good media coverage across the country representing a great opportunity to expand awareness of Austrian and it’s worldwide network.

Gravesend & Northfleet Football Club Chairman, Jason Botley is delighted to have Austrian on board “There aren’t many Conference clubs that can boast an international airline as a main sponsor. In Austrian we feel we have linked up with a progressive, international company that reflects our own values. We are sure this agreement will bring benefits to the club and it’s supporters, as well as Austrian Airlines, and hope that this will be the start of a long and successful relationship.”
