In addition to an innovative meal and beverage concept, this new design covers essential elements of the corporate image such as tableware and menu cards. DO & CO increased the customer satisfaction of Austrian Airlines passengers substantially with these changes. On the organizational front, the Group began its integration of the airline catering business unit, now conducting business under the name Sky Gourmet, which it acquired from Airest the previous business year. These efforts are progressing well. Encouraging trends are also reported by the other DO & CO business locations. The DO & CO business location in New York has expanded its business with existing customers. The collaboration with Emirates Airlines deserves special mention in this regard. The contract for hosting guests at the first and business class lounges in New York was particularly successful. Turkish Airlines was added to the clientele in New York and now enjoys DO & CO catering on its daily flight from JFK to Istanbul. Cathay Pacific Airways also took on DO & CO as a caterer for its third daily flight ex JFK to Hong Kong. Another highlight concerns the premium Arab carrier ETIHAD. Already an established DO & CO customer ex New York, it will now be catered by the DO & CO Gourmet Kitchen ex Frankfurt and ex Milan as well. An extensive project was launched to expand the Gourmet Kitchen at the DO & CO business location at London Heathrow. The object of this expansion is to increase business with British Airways and other customers at this strategically significant airport. Work also began to expand the Airline Catering unit in New York and to increase the capacities of the DO & CO Airline Catering unit in Frankfurt.
