The year 2024 brought some changes to Austria: The Westbahn increased the number of connections to Innsbruck. A new daily connection to Bregenz was also introduced. It has more stops than the RailjetXpress connections, such as Hohenems, Frastanz or Nenzing. The daily connection from Innsbruck to Bregenz, Stuttgart and further to Germany is now realised by an ICE instead of an IC train.

The number of D-trains between Villach and Ljubljana has been increased to almost every two hours. However, there are no longer any direct day trains from Salzburg and Schwarzach-St. Veit to Slovenia. In addition, the Railjet and Regiojet connections from Vienna to Prague now run via Pardubice.
