Vienna Airport reports passenger record for first five months
Vienna International Airport saw a record number of passengers in the first 5 months of 2019 and anticipates further growth as traffic increases, particularly in the LCC market. Passenger numbers grew 25% year-over-year to 11.7m. The main drivers continue to be LCCs as well as new long-haul services. In 2018, LCC passenger growth at the airport was fuelled by the opening of 3 new bases by LaudaMotion, Level, and Wizz Air. In the long-haul sector at VIE, China Southern Airlines launched 3X-weekly Guangzhou-Urumqi-Vienna Boeing 787-8 services June 18. Earlier this year, ANA launched daily Vienna-Tokyo Haneda services; Air Canada began daily Vienna-Toronto service; and Austrian Airlines started a new Vienna-Montreal route. In 2018, 27m passengers travelled to and from VIE. <br/>
