High-Tech Handling<br />

___A particularly important factor for transfer passengers is a baggage handling system that<br />

keeps pace with fast connections. Thanks to state-of-the-art technology, <strong>Flughafen</strong> <strong>Wien</strong> AG<br />

handling services are among the best in the world. Documents are prepared directly at the<br />

aircraft, thereby saving valuable time. Modern equipment guarantees smooth handling and<br />

helps avoid delays.<br />

East-West Hub<br />

___In spite of the events of 11 September, travel to Eastern Europe rose by 11.3% in <strong>2001</strong>.<br />

Together with the Austrian Airlines Group, we were able to further expand our position as a<br />

key East-West hub. This growth will trigger a significant increase in the frequency (number of<br />

flights per week) to individual destinations. In Winter <strong>2001</strong>/02, Austrian Airlines are providing<br />

10.9% more flights per week to Eastern Europe than in the comparable period of the prior<br />

year. With a total of 36 destinations throughout Eastern Europe, we are the leader in this segment.<br />
