Munich Airport is now firmly established in European and international aviation as an important hub This means that an increasing number of passengers are flying into Munich in order to transfer to flights to other destinations around the world. In 2012, 39 percent of air travelers at Munich Airport were transfer passengers. More than 38 million passengers for the first time In spite of the difficult conditions facing aviation in 2012, 38.4 million passengers began or completed their journeys by air at Munich Airport. This result marks a gain of 1.6 percent in passenger movements and puts Munich ahead of the industry curve: Airports in Germany reported passenger growth of 1.1 percent, on average, in 2012. 68 percent arrived from abroad and flew on to a destination outside Germany, 16 percent arrived from foreign countries and boarded an onward domestic flight, 16 percent were of domestic origin and switched to an international flight, and fewer than 1 percent transferred from one domestic flight to another.

A city with an airport Airports are now much more than pieces of transport infrastructure where air travelers arrive, depart and transfer between flights: Theyve transformed into multifunctional service and communication centers. Today, they have everything from conference and event facilities to retail malls, plus plenty of places where people can eat and drink. Theyre vibrant spaces of encounter for visitors and airport employees and have become popular locations for restaurateurs, hoteliers, and the advertising industry. With around 35,000 square meters of retail and hospitality space, our airport presents air travelers and visitors with a rich and diverse offering that were constantly expanding and refining.

The need for a third runway Capacity remains an issue at Munich Airport. The current runway system allows us to schedule up to 90 takeoffs and landings an hour a limit we already reach for several hours each day, with the result that we have no free slots (the times allotted to individual takeoff and landing operations) during peak hours. However, demand among airlines can run to as many as 110 slots in a given hour. Building a third runway would increase scheduling capacity to 120 movements an hour. This would successfully eliminate queues on the ground and in the air.

The satellite is taking shape Besides additional runway capacity, Munich Airport will also require more terminal capacity if it is to successfully maintain levels of service in the years ahead. To address this need, were constructing a satellite an additional passenger building on the east apron, which will be connected to Terminal 2 by an underground transport system. Work on the shell began in May 2012, and the building is scheduled for completion in 2015. The satellite will provide 27 additional contact stands for jets, including wide-body aircraft like the Airbus A380. It will also boost Terminal 2s passenger handling capacity by 11 million passengers a year.

Eco-friendly energy supply A combined heat and power plant (CHP) at Munich Airports energy center, one of the most efficient of its kind in the world, plays a key role in avoiding carbon emissions. As its name implies, the plant achieves its exceptional efficiency by generating heat and power together: the heat produced during the power generation process doesnt go to waste its used to drive heating and cooling systems. The airport covers 52 percent of its power and 72 percent of its heat requirements with its own on-site generating capacity.
More than 500 passengers already Roughly 20 years have elapsed since Munich Airport opened on May 17 , 1992, but weve already welcomed our 500-millionth passenger. This means that, in just 20 years, weve handled three times as many passengers as Munichs old airport, Riem, did over its commercial operating life from 1949 to May 16, 1992.
Cargo operations
Since Munich Airport opened in 1992, our annual cargo tonnage has increased fourfold, reaching almost 300,000 metric tons in 2012. The amount of bellyhold freight cargo carried in the hold of passenger aircraft has remained steady at a high level, in spite of the difficult economic environment. Courier and express services another air cargo segment at Munich Airport have also developed exceptionally well. In the years ahead, we expect to see renewed gains in our freight business. To continue to meet the growing demand, were gradually expanding the airports freight infrastructure and capacity. Everything from live animals to pharmaceuticals, perishables, and extremely valuable and even hazardous goods pass through the airport, and all are handled with the utmost care. Our infrastructure, specialized equipment, optimized warehouse and storage facilities, highly trained staff and professional process management all ensure that the airport provides the high quality of service that customers expect. Handling operations are also exceptionally swift and efficient, thanks to the short distances between the airports ramp areas and the Air Cargo Center. A wide range of organizations airlines, freight forwarders, handling companies, general sales agents, logistics companies, packaging services, and customs are located in Munich Airports Air Cargo Center. Our second forwarders building, which opened in September 2012, has greatly reduced the burden on our other storage facilities, and has enabled forwarders to further expand their consolidation and groupage freight operations.

Steady growth Thanks to our strong strategic location, weve gradually become one of Europes leading cargo gateways, and by 2025 we expect to see our annual cargo turnover increase to around 810,000 tons.

A popular European cargo hub Munich Airports air cargo catchment area comprises not just southern Germany but parts of Austria, Switzerland, the Czech Republic and Italy as well. Our importance as a cargo hub for these regions and even parts of southern Europe is constantly increasing. Serving the needs of this growing catchment area will require continuous expansion of our cargo handling facilities at Munich Airport.
Aviation safety
Safety is absolutely paramount in flight operations. Safeguards taken at Munich Airport include regular aircraft servicing in our maintenance hangars, aircraft engine testing in our specially designed hush house, measures to protect the fuel supply, and thorough emergency planning and preparation, above all by airport fire crews. Maintenance Hangar 1: Gross floor area of 36,500 square meters Space for up to six Boeing 747 jumbos Hangar 3: Gross floor area of 29,000 square meters Space for concurrent maintenance work on five Boeing 757 aircraft and six MD 83 jets Hangar 4: Gross floor area of 14,000 square meters Maintenance apron Total area: 230,000 square meters Parking area: 80,000 square meters Hush-house Hall-type steel structure: 72 meters wide, 105 meters long, 20 meters high Floor area: 5,300 square meters Large enough for aircraft up to the size of a Boeing 747 Purpose: Aircraft engine testing The structures design is optimized to dampen noise. Fuel supply Kerosene: Delivered by pipeline, tanker truck and rail Fuel farm: Six above-ground tanks with leak containment pits and warning systems Safety checks Munich Airport is home to Lufthansa Techniks secondlargest maintenance dock. In Hangar 1, around 500 employees work to provide all current aircraft types with proper care and maintenance and to ensure that any technical issues arising with aircraft are rectified. Lufthansa Techniks teams carry out detailed inspections on as many as 40 planes a night. They perform both simple ramp checks and the major C checks that are required every 2024 months. The engineers also replace power units, repair undercarriages, wash the aircraft, and even make modifications to them if necessary. Total capacity: 44,000 cubic meters of kerosene Underground fuel delivery system: Kerosene is pumped by a hydrant pump station along a 17-kilometer network of underground pipes. The fuel is pumped into aircraft by dispenser trucks, which connect the underground fuel delivery system to the planes via some 500 refueling pits on the aprons. The refueling system is equipped with systems to detect minor and major leaks.

Deicing Pavement deicing: More than four million square meters (runways, taxiways and aprons) Deicing is carried out using snow plows and, when necessary, chemical deicing agents based on formates. Storm water from deicing is trapped in channels and piped to a water treatment plant in nearby Eitting for processing. Aircraft deicing: Deicing takes place in special areas at the heads of the runways. Mobile deicing crews, nicknamed polar bears, spray aircraft with a water and glycol mix to clear the ice. The runoff is trapped and processed for reuse in subsequent deicing operations. More than 50 percent of the deicer deployed is recycled. Deicing operator: EFM Gesellschaft fr Enteisen und Flugzeugschleppen am Flughafen Mnchen mbH Airport fire service North and south fire stations: Fire crews are trained to get to any point on either runway from the fire stations within 180 seconds of being called out (as per International Civil Aviation Organization recommendations). Airport fire service personnel: Around 200 fire fighters Fleet: Approx. 40 special vehicles Tasks: Firefighting, technical rescue, and fire safety duties
Deicer biodegradation system In the areas around taxiways, stormwater runoff is cleaned by a biodegradation system pioneered at Munich Airport. Along the taxiways, impervious geotextile mats covered with alternating banks of gravel and sand slow the water as it drains. This gives soil bacteria time to clean the runoff, and the water draining into the ground is harmless.

Biodiversity Around two-thirds of the airports total area of almost 1,600 hectares are green spaces that provide an optimum habitat for rare bird and plant species inside the airports perimeter. Compensatory mitigation sites, created outside the perimeter to offset the impacts caused by the airport in its present form, encompass around 350 hectares. These sites and the airports peripheral zone connect nearby agricultural land with valuable conservation areas and help to sustain local plant and animal life.
