Vienna Airport, operated by Flughafen Wien AG, ranks among Europe’s busiest air hubs, handling 31.7 million passengers in 2024 and serving as one of six Lufthansa Group hubs.
As the home base of Austrian Airlines—with a market share of around 46%—the airport plays a central role in connecting Western Europe with destinations across Central and Eastern Europe. Low-cost carriers have expanded rapidly in recent years, now accounting for nearly 30% of passenger traffic, while long-haul routes to Asia, North America, and the Middle East enhance its global reach. Vienna Airport’s large catchment area extends beyond Austria into parts of the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary, making it a key gateway for regional travelers. Beyond aviation, the airport continues to grow through its “AirportCity” development, combining retail, office, and logistics spaces that support Vienna’s broader economic ecosystem.
