Flughafen Wien AG Reports a Positive First Quarter of 2024: Increase in passenger traffic, revenue and earnings
“Flughafen Wien AG is investing heavily in future growth – CAPEX of over € 200 million in 2024” “The ongoing desire to travel, successful business location projects, a positive financial result and a high level of cost discipline contributed to a significant improvement in revenue and earnings of Flughafen Wien AG in Q1/2024. We anticipate future growth, which is why we are making massive investments to the amount of over € 200 million in 2024, a figure which will increase in the coming years. As a debt-free company, we can finance these investments e.g., the Southern Expansion terminal project, expansion of photovoltaic facilities by 13 MW and a fast electric charging station, from our own cash flow without incurring any new debt. Innovative business location projects such as Enpulsion, an Austrian company producing satellite propulsion engines, and the European Space Agency, are pointing the right way into the future,” states an optimistic Dr. Günther Ofner, joint CEO and CFO of Flughafen Wien AG.
“Extensive offering of destinations and flights should trigger a strong summer travel season“ “The first quarter of the year went extremely well. The desire to travel continued unabated in the first three months of this year. The increased passenger traffic of 11.0% at Vienna Airport and 13.8% in the Flughafen Wien Group is significantly driving revenue and earnings development. The extensive offering of destinations and flights should result in a strong summer travel season. The upcoming Whitsun weekend is a good indicator of this. We expect about 360,000 passengers in the period from 18th to 20th of May. We are well positioned in terms of our flight operations, and our airport team is in full action to ensure that we offer travellers the best quality of service. The new Southern Expansion Terminal project will provide a major boost for an even better airport experience. Construction work is already in fully swing. Starting in 2027, we will make more leisure areas and an extended shopping and gastronomical offering available to passengers over 70,000 m², along with new lounges, more security checkpoints and many other additional features,” says Mag. Julian Jäger, joint CEO and COO of Flughafen Wien AG.
