Company profile
Operate the hub, monetise the site and choose where to add capacity
Flughafen Wien AG is the listed parent and general operator of Vienna Airport; it operates the airport platform, not airline services. The group combines airport infrastructure, handling and security with retail and property. Vienna handled 32.6 million passengers in 2025; the wider network handled 43.4 million including fully consolidated Malta and equity-accounted Košice. The cards distinguish direct operations from subsidiaries, joint ventures, airlines, maintenance providers, public bodies, tenants and contractors.
Group perimeter
See why 48.44% is consolidated while 66% is not
Control does not follow headline stake alone. At 2025 year-end, FWAG's effective 48.44% interest in Malta International Airport was fully consolidated, while its indirect 66% interest in Košice was jointly controlled and equity-accounted. Vienna Airport FBO handles general and business aviation at Vienna; its wholly owned subsidiary Flugplatz Vöslau BetriebsGmbH operates Bad Vöslau. At parent level, Airports Group Europe held 44.3%, Vienna and Lower Austria 20% each, the employee foundation 10% and free float 5.7%.

Capacity and technology
Add terminal capacity without building a third runway
The EUR 420 million Terminal 3 Southern Expansion is due in the second quarter of 2027: 70,000 square metres, 18 bus gates, a central checkpoint, 6,000 square metres of lounges and 10,000 square metres of retail and food space. In July 2026, 35 CT scanners entered service across existing terminals. FWAG ended the third-runway project in November 2025, saying two runways plus terminal growth could serve up to 52 million passengers. Ten solar systems at Vienna and one at Bad Vöslau generated 42.5 million kWh in 2025, covering roughly half of FWAG's total electricity requirements; over 99% of reported emissions were indirect value-chain emissions.
