Value creation – Munich Airport as an economic factor
Economic benefits
Munich Airport has regional economic impact at a number of different levels. A basic distinction is made between the effects resulting directly from operation of the airport, on one hand, and the effects resulting from its use, on the other hand.
Value-added effects resulting from airport operation
The value-added effects generated by airport operations can be categorized into direct, indirect, and induced effects. In 2018, all of the companies that were based on the airport campus generated direct added value in the amount of €3.78 billion. Around every hundredth euro generated in Bavaria is generated by Munich Airport.
Effects resulting from use of air traffic
Effects resulting from the use of Munich Airport are known as location effects. These include positive economic effects, such as an increase in productivity and investments, plus a high level of employment and innovation. Proximity to the airport is seen as an important criterion for companies deciding to settle in the area, particularly those operating on an international scale. The airport also offers impressive advantages for the tourism industry.
