"Vienna Airport is growing quickly. Flight traffic and revenue are increasing
significantly, the profit for the period climbed by 16.5% and net debt could be
further reduced thanks to the strong passenger growth, high level of
productivity and resolute cost management. The new health care centre at the
airport has already been opened, a new pharmaceutical handling centre will
commence operations this year, and work on Office Park 4 and the planning for a
third hotel at the airport site are moving ahead. The airport is prospering, and
the economy, tourism, employment and the entire eastern region of Austria are
all benefitting from this. We need more capacity on the ground on a long-term
basis", states Günther Ofner, Member of the Management Board of Flughafen Wien
AG.

"Passenger and traffic development this year has surpassed all our expectations.
For this reason, we are revising passenger forecasts this year upwards. We
expect 10% more travellers than in the previous year, and in Vienna the 27
million passenger threshold is within reach. In any case, 2018 will mark a new
passenger record. The strong growth of low-cost carriers, above all Laudamotion,
Wizz Air and Level, the good development of Austrian Airlines and new long-haul
flight connections are the main drivers. This growth trend will also continue in
2019. Important future highlights have already been confirmed i.e. new long-haul
connections offered by Air Canada, ANA and Austrian Airlines", explains Julian
