COPENHAGEN: According to a report, the aviation sector annually contributes up to 100 billion kroner to the economy, accounts for about 30,000 jobs and supports about 150,000 more. Copenhagen Economics paints pictures of two possible scenarios for the industry. Its rosy picture involves growth of 8 billion kroner and 16,000 additional jobs by 2020. However, a lack of growth, it says, could result in 15,000 jobs disappearing.
The aviation industry is a big contributor to the economy, but Denmark risks losing out if a more favorable framework is not implemented. These are some of the conclusions of a report by the consultancy firm Copenhagen Economics, which were carried out for the aviation industry organization Dansk Luftfart.
