Airport Fire Service
On call round the clock
No airport operations without the airport fire service
The airport fire service is an indispensable part of Stuttgart Airport. The team is on standby at all hours of the day and night, 365 days a year. No aircraft is permitted to take off or land without the airport fire service. The emergency services can reach any point on the airport grounds within just 120 seconds.
A strong team dedicated to safety
Staff and main responsibilities
At the Stuttgart Airport Fire Service, 126 full-time firefighters currently ensure that a wide range of tasks are carried out reliably around the clock. Two shifts ensure that services run smoothly – from fire safety and technical assistance to emergency medical services.
The fire station at Stuttgart Airport has been at its current location since 1995 – directly opposite the control tower and roughly in the middle of the runway. From there, the emergency services can reach every corner of the sprawling airport grounds in no time at all.
The airport fire service’s fleet is well-equipped and versatile – ranging from compact emergency vehicles and turntable ladders to fire engines weighing several tonnes. Ambulances are also part of the fleet.
The emergency medical service is one of the airport fire service’s most important areas of responsibility. Every day, many people pass through Stuttgart Airport – and in the event of a medical emergency, the on-site paramedics provide rapid assistance.
