With 1.605.099 passengers, Vienna-Schwechat Airport almost doubled in February 2023 in direct comparison with the same month last year. Together with Kosice and Luqa there were 2.012.559 passengers.

Group-wide, there were 85,2 percent more travelers. At the Vienna location, the increase is 83,6 percent. However, February 2022 was negatively influenced by the Omicron variant.

At Vienna Airport, the number of local passengers rose to 1.294.535 (+78,5%) and that of transfer passengers to 305.990 (+110,2%). Flight movements increased to 12.929 take-offs and landings (+48,0%). Cargo volume fell by 2022% compared to February 3,3 to 17.658 tons.
