The strong year-on-year growth recorded in April 2011 is related to the effects of the volcanic ash cloud on European air travel and the related decline in traffic during April 2010. For 2011 Flughafen Wien AG is forecasting an increase of 5.0% in passengers, 3.0% in maximum take-off weight (MTOW) and 2.0% in flight movements.
