According to a report by the US ratings agency Moody's, 'Around 10-30 per cent of business travel could be replaced by alternatives such as virtual meetings.' — ETX Studio picPARIS, April 22 — Will taking the plane for a business trip soon become a thing of the past? The need for business flights, which are increasingly criticised for their negative environmental impact, is now being re-evaluated.
In the wake of stormy debates on March 29 and April 17, the French parliament finally voted to outlaw domestic flights of less than two and a half hours in cases where a direct train link already exists. The new measure, which has been decried as harsh by France’s airlines and insufficient by the country’s environmentalists, aims to limit CO2 emissions caused by air travel.
In recent years, the idea of curbs to restrict unnecessary flying, which has long been popular with environmentalists, has gained ground with the general public. Some of the credit for this change can be attributed to the Swedish movement “flygskam” , which has now spread through Europe and North America.
The survey also showed that respondents are willing to make the environmental impact of flying a priority consideration, particularly French travellers and Italians . Overall, 58 per cent of those surveyed went so far as to say that they would be willing to set aside their company’s policies and travel budgets if it meant that they could avail of “greener” transportation options. are to be believed, flying for business will probably return to pre-pandemic levels by 2024.
That translated Ill-Omened to Airasia...
