Vienna Aircraft Handling lounges are revamped
Five lounges at Vienna International airport have been reimagined and decked out with a combination of Viennese design and international appeal. Upping the high quality experience for customers is the goal.
Comfort and style were at the top of the design brief.

Flughafen Wien, the operator of Vienna International airport, has unveiled five refurbished salons at its dedicated VIP terminal.

The salons have been redesigned in the ‘Golden Heritage’ style, with wood elements on the walls, elegant flooring and comfortable, upholstered furniture. The opening ceremony took place on 26 February in the presence of Günther Ofner and Julian Jäger, members of the management board of Flughafen Wien, as well as Michael Zach and Joubin Pour, MDs of Vienna Aircraft Handling.

“Providing high quality and first-class service for our passengers is the absolute priority at Vienna airport,” say Jäger and Ofner. “We are committed to making our VIP services accessible to everyone.”

Zach and Pour add: “Our travellers can now expect even more comfort in the exclusive atmosphere to which they are accustomed. Each person who books our VIP service should feel comfortable and at ease, regardless of whether they are taking a scheduled flight or their own private jet.

“For this reason, we paid attention when designing the salons to fuse Viennese charm and international flair, so that every guest feels at home. It was also important to us to ensure that the entire value chain, from design to production, was made in Austria.”
