Revenue and earnings increased
considerably, the Airport City is growing, and we are making extensive
investments in modernising the infrastructure. However, we are growing in a
responsible manner. Since 2011 we have succeeded in reducing CO2 emissions by
about 70% per traffic unit and energy consumption by 40%. Vienna Airport will be
CO2 neutral by the year 2030, in spite of further growth in flight traffic and
at the flight hub", explains
Günther Ofner, Member of the Management Board of
Flughafen Wien AG.
"The growth trend at Vienna Airport is continuing. We registered a 22.4% rise in
the number of passengers handled in the period January to July 2019, and we are
heading towards a new all-time high in the summer. Accordingly, we are the top
performer in Europe and the fastest growing airport in our category. The number
of flight movements also increased sharply by 14.9% since January. 2019 will
turn out to be a record year in the airport's history in terms of passenger
volume and will likely reach the level of about 31 million travellers. This
strengthens the entire business and tourism location", states
Julian Jäger,
Member of the Management Board of Flughafen Wien AG.
