Vienna Airport covers a total area of more than 10 km2. It is located roughly 20 kilometres from the centre of Vienna and can be easily reached in a short time via motorway, rapid transit railway and the City Airport Train (CAT). Supported by a clear geographical advantage, Vienna Airport has positioned itself as a gateway to Central and Eastern Europe and the Middle East. The distinguishing factors for Vienna Airport include an extensive offering of 179 destinations in 67 countries as well as high service quality through short connecting times and high punctuality. The catchment area of Vienna Airport touches on six countries within a radius of 200 km. Approx. 16 million people live in these areas of Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia and Slovenia. Infrastructure development in the neighbouring countries has led to the steady expansion of Vienna’s catchment area in recent years. The economic recovery process in these countries is also refl ected in a growing interest in travel, which has been driving passenger growth in Vienna above the European average for many years. We assume this trend will also continue in the coming years.
