At its meeting on June 14th, the Supervisory Board of Flughafen Wien AG unanimously agreed to extend the contracts of the current Management Board members for five years. The new term of office will begin on October 1, 2020 and last until September 30, 2025.
Director General Bettina Glatz-Kremsner, Chairwoman of the Supervisory Board of the publicly listed company Flughafen Wien AG, explained the unanimous decision today made by the Supervisory Board: “Because of the terminal expansion programme and preparations for the 3rd Runway, Flughafen Wien AG has gigantic construction projects ahead of it lasting many years which will have to implemented without interrupting normal business operations. The successful handling these tasks requires outstanding management qualities. The Management Board, which has successfully been in office now for eight years, has convincingly demonstrated that it can effectively lead the company into the future”.

Both managers were reappointed to serve on the Management Board in June 2015.
