Lauda Europe is a Maltese low-cost airline operating on behalf of its parent company Ryanair. The airline offers wet lease flights for Ryanair and charter services.[2]
Lauda Europe itself is the successor of the defunct Austrian carrier Lauda. In 2020, Ryanair Holdings closed its Austrian unit in favor of its newly established Maltese subsidiary Lauda Europe and transferred the entire Lauda fleet of 30 Airbus A320 to Lauda Europe. Lauda staff were offered new positions at Lauda Europe.[3] In May 2021, Ryanair Group CEO Michael O'Leary announced that Lauda may move to an all-Boeing 737 fleet.
