Tyrol at the top!
Bitter result: 72 rescue flights per vacation day
This year's semester break was a busy time for the ÖAMTC air rescue service: 1666 missions were flown throughout Austria - Tyrol was the undisputed leader with 474 missions!
Particularly explosive: "The winter was particularly snow-poor this year, which led to hard pistes and stony, imperfect fall zones next to the slopes in many places," explained Marco Trefanitz, Managing Director of ÖAMTC Air Rescue, in a press release on Wednesday.
90 rescue flights in just one day
The rescue helicopters took off an average of 72 times a day to help injured winter sports enthusiasts. Kitzbühel was the sad leader with 108 missions, closely followed by Sölden with 96 missions and Landeck with 95. The two peak days were February 4 and 20 with 90 rescue flights each.
This shows that Winter sports remain a high-risk sport, especially when there is no snow and the slopes are dangerously hard.
