Business im taking my 1st flight since the pandemic to mark im a little nervous. The entire industry is on edge its future could look very different. Is usually high season and Londons Gatwick airport should be crowded with vacationers eager to fly to spanish beaches this time of year but in the midst of the pandemic there are a few tourists here. Yeah it does feel actually reweigh it isnt it is i could be anyone here but i know the mom yet you want to talk to off anything it is just a bit confusing and scary. In june only 11000 passengers pass through britain 2nd Busiest Airport after heathrow a year earlier there are over 2000000 passengers here many are just afraid to fly during the pandemic like most airports gatwick has introduced measures to minimize the risk of infection masks are now mandatory and Hand Sanitizer is everywhere. Governments airlines and aviation experts are also thinking about how to avoid the spread of coven 1000 on board some have suggested leaving the middle seat empty but airlines are opposed. Theyve proposed plastic shields between the seats or touchless lavatories which cost a 3rd more than Standard Aviation toilets. Airlines and plane manufacturers are urging governments and aviation authorities around the world to come up with a common Regulatory Framework to cope with the pandemic. Because they examine its tourism trends and joins us from freiburg in germany what can you tell me to reassure me that ill be fine on my flight tomorrow. Actually i cant this is more restrictions in place and im sure the risk is also a little higher than usual so. Say would you disagree with it i did see who calls their planes a uniquely safe environment. Im not a doctor or anyone who could judge of the situation obviously im expecting this kind of coming from the sector and im sure the sector does everything that they can in order to ensure that doesnt just consider travel safety after all its the Biggest Issue of. Transport its concerned with its presence or safety well the point of what the sec is going to have to do stay where you are for a moment just lets listen in for a 2nd to the head of the International Air transport association respond to detail we probably will have less operate sure number for eaters so if you industry would have shrunk by a bite that day which is not good news for everyone its not going to its obviously if its not good news for passengers because it means you know a restricted often less distillation of less competition so bad news all round pretty much stefan what would you like to see from the e. U. Ministers in this case who are discussing regulations and aid right now. Wish for ministers to see the entire aviation issue in the context of Climate Change we have a new normal at the moment i think passenger numbers are lower than. They used to be the expectation is minus 50 percent not all of that is genuine demand i think we could do with a lot less trouble and if the opportunity is taken now to combine time a change and a recovery for the sector i think that would d be to everybodys benefit it would be nice for the planet but what about if the demand is there what if what if mass tourism does return. Well here i want you have to consider that globally only 4 percent of humanity flies in a given year. Flying is a very very elite it too risky to start with and. As you grow. The crust off trouble and i dont think were going to see that re emerge in the near future because lee thank you very much for joining in now to some of the other business stories making news hundreds of workers in spain have been protesting against its restructuring plans playmakers says its cutting 15000 jobs across europe response to the Coronavirus Crisis south koreas economy recorded its worst quarterly performance in decades as the penny handed a sports course to mystic product was down 2. 9 percent year on year that was worse than full cost.
