Civil aviation survey

Civil aviation statistics provide information on developments in national and international air traffic as well as on traffic and transport services rendered within specific observation periods.

The aim is to provide meaningful data to government institutions (especially federal ministries), international organizations (especially the European Union), interest groups, scientific institutes, industry, airlines and other parties interested in civil aviation.

The civil aviation survey records the traffic and operating performance of all aircraft appearing in the aircraft register of the Republic of Austria held by Austro Control GmbH. In addition, flight operations at Austrian aerodromes are surveyed. For powered flight operations, domestic and foreign aircraft as well as helicopters are included. The survey of glider operations covers all glider take-offs.

The following regulations are relevant for air transport statistics:

The treatment and management of personal data strictly abide by the Austrian regulations of data privacy protection and the guidelines by Statistics Austria. The information on data protection informs you about the processing of personal and enterprise-related data. The publication of results abides confidentiality rules, drawing conclusions on information of single enterprises or persons is not possible.

In accordance with the regulation on civil air transport statistics (Federal Law Gazette No. 538/1976) the obligation to report affects all airlines, holders of civil airfields (civil joint user in case of military airfields), holders of aircraft registered in Austria as well as holders of aircraft already deleted but in the reporting year registered in Austria.

The civil aviation survey is conducted annually. The reporting period refers to a reporting year.

Detailed explanations to all variables in the survey and general information are available on the German website.
