My Pressreview about Vienna's Airport


I've read an article in the Austrian Times the other day and it talks about that Vienna International Airport reported that it had a 5.4 per cent increase in passengers to about 1,200,000 in February 2010. I thought you might be interessted in this article because a rising number of passengers will help the airport overcome recession, and the work at VIA’s new Skylink terminal can go on. Unicredit analysts described the situation of the Airport as critical. They said if they would continue like that the airport will go bancrupt.

Basically what it says is that it hasn’t been possible to calculate what Skylink’s total cost since there would be no cost guarantees until all work contracts had been signed.

Last year, the workers didn’t work anymore, because the costs from the project rose from 400 to 800 million €. Personally I think that it’s very important to have an airport in Vienna because through the airport many tourists come to Austria and our economy rises.

Vocabulary:

reduce: (verringern): The Airport in Vienna has to reduce the costs of the skylink.

Describe(beschreiben): I have to describe something whithout saying it’s name.
