Perfect Departure in a Relaxed Atmosphere

The renowned company MAGNUM FBO is ushering in a new era of exclusive travel with the opening of its state-of-the-art lounge in the private terminal area at Salzburg Airport. Since its foundation in 2012, MAGNUM FBO has firmly established itself as a leading provider of premium services in the transport of customers from the international business world and already operates similar lounges at Vienna Airport very successfully. "The opening of our new exclusive lounge at Salzburg Airport marks a milestone for MAGNUM FBO and emphasizes our commitment to continuously improving our customers' travel experience. We are proud to create an oasis of calm and luxury that offers our guests an unforgettable stay before and after their flights," says MAGNUM FBO Managing Director Florian Samsinger.

Salzburg Airport not only has a large terminal for the usual departures for holidaymakers and business travelers, many guests also use the General Aviation Terminal to take a business jet to their destination in a relaxed atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle. The Herbert von Karajan Terminal in the administrative section of the airport was opened in 1999 to cater to the needs of private flight customers and still commemorates the famous conductor and private pilot Herbert von Karajan. In recent years, this lounge has served as a special waiting area for private passengers from all over the world, including personalities from the worlds of business, politics and culture. "Airports must constantly evolve, and this applies not only to the areas for passengers using scheduled and holiday flights, but also to the entire infrastructure of our airport group. It is important to know all the needs of our customers, to set up appropriate projects and to realize them within our technical and financial capabilities," says Wolfgang Mittermayr, Head of Property & Real Estate Management at Salzburg Airport.

Especially during festivals, cultural events, congresses, major events, political events or international meetings, the big names in business and industry do not always come to Salzburg on scheduled flights but on business aircrafts. Time is always a precious commodity here and fast, global connectivity often also creates competitive advantages. "An important proportion of customers at Salzburg Airport come from the business aviation sector, mainly business travelers who need to get from point to point quickly. Some of these companies have their own aircraft or use on-demand airlines for their journeys. We are very pleased that MAGNUM FBO, a provider in the business aviation sector, has realized a top modern lounge for its clientele at Salzburg Airport in order to make the departure and arrival of its guests and customers even more relaxed and comfortable," Mittermayr continues.
