Austrian Airlines Group is under increasing pressure to stabilize its negative financial situation. "Austrian has a chance to survive. The only problem I see is that we are running out of time," new CEO Alfred Oetsch said. The group narrowed its first-quarter adjusted net loss before taxes to [euro]67.7 million ($83.7 million) from [euro]76.8 million in the year-ago period after losing [euro]129.1 million for all of 2005. Austria's der Standard reported that Oetsch is proposing several measures to get the airline's finances in order, including introducing a new business class on long-haul flights starting in July and lowering management salaries. He warned that layoffs may become necessary. May 25, 2006
