To mark the 100th anniversary of Stuttgart Airport, the airport company organized a suitcase auction in which 100 pieces of luggage were auctioned off by the Stuttgart auction house Eppli. The proceeds of 50.000 euros were donated on November 22, 2024, half to Fildertafel eV and half to the association Frauen helfen Frauen Filder eV.
The event on November 10, 2024 attracted numerous visitors and was part of a comprehensive anniversary program. In addition to the auction, where the surprise contents of the suitcases increased the interest of bidders, an entertainment program with demonstrations and children's activities was offered. The auction underlined the social commitment of the airport, whose managing director Ulrich Heppe emphasized the support of regional projects as a key responsibility.
