The Airline Industry & Covid-19 - webinar
The Airline Industry & Covid-19: Current Challenges and Opportunities for the future - webinar March 24
On the 24th of March Gijs van Popta, General Manager for North Europe at Air France explained their current situation and how they are managing the crisis as part of the highly affected airline industry. The webinar was organized by the Danish-French Chamber of Commerce and the Benelux Business Club Scandinavia.
Gijs van Popta presented the consequences for their company, in terms of decreases in daily flights and their loss of passengers compared to former global crises.
Further, he also provided some positive insight for their business, in terms of the ability to help with delivering vaccines all over the world and their launching of an innovative program enabling companies to play an active role in a more sustainable way of traveling. The initiative is that all Air France and KLM contributions will be invested in the sourcing and consumption of SAF [Sustainable Aviation Fuel], which is a large step towards increasingly eco-responsible air transport.
Hence, besides the current difficulties and uncertainty for the airline industry, Gijs van Popta’s hope and trust for the future are big.
